Here is some more information on this problem. Running
gmake -n front
produces
for f in ; do \
if test -f ./${f}; then \
/usr/local/bin/install -c -m 644 ./${f} \
../../../library/methods; \
fi; \
done
This seems to come from the following line in share/make/basepkg.mk
@for f in $(FRONTFILES); do \
Grepping for FRONTFILES yields
library/stats/Makefile.in:FRONTFILES = COPYRIGHTS.modreg SOURCES.ts
library/stats/Makefile.win:FRONTFILES = COPYRIGHTS.modreg SOURCES.ts
library/stats/Makefile:FRONTFILES = COPYRIGHTS.modreg SOURCES.ts
Is something similar missing from the makefiles in src/library/methods?
