Follow-up Comment #2, bug #48643 (project make): I think the problem might be in src/implicit.c.
>From 3.81 code: /* The DEP->changed flag says that this dependency resides in a nonexistent directory. So we normally can skip looking for the file. However, if CHECK_LASTSLASH is set, then the dependency file we are actually looking for is in a different directory (the one gotten by prepending FILENAME's directory), so it might actually exist. */ /* @@ dep->changed check is disabled. */ if (((f = lookup_file (name)) != 0 && f->is_target) /*|| ((!dep->changed || check_lastslash) && */ || file_exists_p (name)) continue; The corresponding check in 4.3: if (lookup_file (d->name) != 0 /*|| ((!dep->changed || check_lastslash) && */ || file_exists_p (d->name)) There's no check for f->is_target on the result of lookup_file, so I presume it is picking up the name as a dependency. Perhaps it should read: if (((f = lookup_file (d->name)) != 0 && f->is_target) /*|| ((!dep->changed || check_lastslash) && */ || file_exists_p (d->name)) f is a [struct file *], not declared in 4.3. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?48643> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
