Hello Paul,
It has nothing to do with permissions. If i turn off the -j switch
then everything goes fine. When i turn it on, then according to
my rule.
all: $(ODIR) $(LIB)
causes make to run the two commands simultaneously.
The $(ODIR) target is used to creating a "depend" directory
which is used by the $(LIB) target. Since those two commands
are run simultaneously. the dependency check fails to create
the file.
It has nothing to do with permissions.....
Has anyone seen such problems...
