We have: $(call recurse,world-bin,src config contrib,all) means src/Makefile is reached but will not reach src/test/modules/Makefile because test/modules is not part of src/Makefile's SUBDIRS. > or "make install-world" are the accepted targets for building everything. We have: $(call recurse,install-world,doc src config contrib,install) so, same as above (src/test/modules/Makefile will not be reached). >From what I can see, only: check-world: $(call recurse,check-world,src/test src/pl src/interfaces contrib src/bin src/tools/pg_bsd_indent,check) checkprep: $(call recurse,checkprep, src/test src/pl src/interfaces contrib src/bin) installcheck-world: $(call recurse,installcheck-world,src/test src/pl src/interfaces contrib src/bin,installcheck) build src/test/modules. I just found surprising that a "default" make (no target specified) does not build src/test/modules while a "default" meson/ninja does.
