apologies if this is really basic stuff, but what is the rationale for the separation into scripts/Makefile.build and scripts/Makefile.lib?
at first glance, i would have thought that the latter focused on building libraries, but it's included directly by the former, and it contains the critical content for backward compatibility: # Backward compatibility asflags-y += $(EXTRA_AFLAGS) ccflags-y += $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) cppflags-y += $(EXTRA_CPPFLAGS) ldflags-y += $(EXTRA_LDFLAGS) but i would have thought the above was fundamental stuff that belongs in Makefile.build. so what's the reasoning behind the way those makefiles are laid out? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
