Hi,

I'd like to report a bug in the PODS/cygwin integration. Just in case it can help any other not to loose 3h.

During the last days, the make package in the cygwin projects was updated from 3.80 to 3.81. This raises a problem with Makefiles in windows. Suppose you have:

mytarget: myfile.c myotherfile.c
        gcc blah blah

        No problem.

        Now, suppose you have

mytarget: d:myfile.c d:myotherfile.c
        gcc blah blah

make becomes mad because of the d: (since it uses : to separate target from dependencies). Now, since in PODS you do not make the Makefile yourself, but trust in the Makefiles created by PODS, it includes ("sometimes"? For _me_ it is "always", since the project is in another hd) the full path to the files, including the d:...

        It reports "target pattern contains no `%'".

The solution I've found is to downgrade to 3.80 version of make, since that version seems to cope fine with that :

Regards,
