It doesn't work in a VPATH build right now, FWIW. $@, $< will point to a local file in the build directory, right now. And the path to perltidyrc doesn't work either. It seems to work after the following modifications diff --git i/src/backend/utils/Makefile w/src/backend/utils/Makefile index bcf9dd41adf..ca733d12dce 100644 --- i/src/backend/utils/Makefile +++ w/src/backend/utils/Makefile @@ -92,10 +92,10 @@ $(top_builddir)/src/include/utils/probes.h: probes.h # Nothing depends on it, so it will never be called unless explicitly requested # The last two lines of the recipe format the script according to our # standard and put back some blank lines for improved readability. -Gen_dummy_probes.pl: Gen_dummy_probes.sed +$(top_srcdir)/src/backend/utils/Gen_dummy_probes.pl: $(top_srcdir)/src/backend/utils/Gen_dummy_probes.sed perl -ni -e ' print; exit if /^\$$0/;' $@ s2p -f $< | sed -e 1,4d -e '/# #/d' -e '$$d' >> $@ - perltidy --profile=../../tools/pgindent/perltidyrc $@ + perltidy --profile=$(top_srcdir)/src/tools/pgindent/perltidyrc $@ perl -pi -e '!$$lb && ( /^\t+#/ || /^# prototypes/ ) && print qq{\n};'\ -e '$$lb = m/^\n/; ' $@ diff --git i/src/test/regress/parallel_schedule w/src/test/regress/parallel_schedule Greetings, Andres Freund
