Package: make
Version: 3.81-8
Severity: normal
Hi,
I've run into an odd behaviour with pattern rules. A pattern rule
without a body is simply ignored:
m...@frosties:~/t% cat Makefile
%-foo: bla-%-foo
%-baz: bla-%-foo
$(info $@)
bla-%-foo:
$(info $@)
touch $@
m...@frosties:~/t% make blub-foo
make: *** No rule to make target `blub-foo'. Stop.
m...@frosties:~/t% make blub-baz
bla-blub-foo
touch bla-blub-foo
blub-baz
rm bla-blub-foo
Any idea why that is so?
MfG
Goswin
