Hi, I'm seeing a rather unexpected behaviour when including a submakefile. Please consider the following Makefile:
nothing: reparse.mk: mayOrMayNotExist ; @echo would remake $@ -include reparse.mk When I call make while the file mayOrMayNotExist does exist, I get: $ touch mayOrMayNotExist $ make would remake reparse.mk make: Nothing to be done for `nothing' But when the file mayOrMayNotExist does _not_ exist, I only get $ rm -f mayOrMayNotExist $ make make: Nothing to be done for `nothing'. Could anyone help me in understanding why Make behaves differently here?
