not good enough, unfortunately (at least on Tru64)
look at this simple Makefile:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] testmake]$ cat Makefile
all: mydir
mydir:
cd mydir; make
[EMAIL PROTECTED] testmake]$
If the directory mydir actually exists, it won't do a damn thing. If
the directory mydir does not exist, it will try to run "cd mydir;
make".
The same thing is happening with
SUBDIRS = lib
all: $(SUBDIRS)
$(SUBDIRS) :
cd $@; make
It thinks lib is up-to-date and won't rebuild it, even after removing
config.status from the dependency.
I think that either some sort of timestamp file or an explicit
dependency on the file we need in libs is needed.
