Not sure if I understand you. If I cause mlguestfs.cmxa to be out of date by touching guestfs.cmx, only mlguestfs.cmxa will be rebuilt. If I cause mlguestfs.cma to be out of date by touching guestfs.cmo, both mlguestfs.cma and mlguestfs.cmxa will be rebuilt. This could be fixed by using an order-only prerequisite: mlguestfs.cmxa: | mlguestfs.cma Cheers, -Hilko _______________________________________________ Libguestfs mailing list Libguestfs@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libguestfs
