Use a sentinel?
.PHONY: a b c d e
a:
@echo "Target $@ is Done"
@touch .e-ok
b:
@echo "Target $@ is Done"
@touch .e-ok
c:
@echo "Target $@ is Done"
@touch .e-ok
d:
@echo "Target $@ is Done"
@touch .e-ok
e: .e-ok
@echo "Target $@ is Done"
.e-ok:
@echo "You must build one of a-d before you can build e"
@exit -1
cheers,

Thanks for this idea, it looks like a real step forward for my issue.
Yet, now that this works, I have found another problem.
If someone do
make a b e
the system build e before b is completed. But e doesn`t detect b as
it has not been built before it...
So the sentinel make sure that e is built only after at least one of a
b c d is built but it doesn`t garantee that e is the last one built
which is also another need I have.
