Btw, in a simple Makefile I tried, I couldn't reproduce this, either: Make had no problems finding programs on PATH when the directory where those programs live was quoted in the value of PATH. So I guess here, too, an example of a failure is necessary to reproduce the problem. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
