Sounds dandy. % % However, when I "touch" a *.f90 file, and then run make (have a .SUFFIXES : % .f90 line in the makefile), % NOTHING gets done (no update). That certainly sounds like something is wrong, but there's no assurance that it's with the GNU FileUtils. % % Please let me know what I am doing wrong, or is this a bug? Let's see if touch is working properly. If you ls -lF somefile.f before and after your touch, you should see the timestamps updated. Similarly, if you ls -lF somefile.f90 before and after your touch somefile.f90 command and see an updated timestamp, then touch is working as expected and you can take a look at your Makefile and your Fortran code (which, I fear, is not likely to be something with which the bug-fileutils list can help you). % % Thanks. % % Steven P.
