This turns out to be a bit messy for source trees with subdirectories.
nightly(1) doesn't do a "make all" and then "make install", it just does
a "make install". So if I set up the makefile like
all: THIRDPARTYLICENSE $(SUBDIRS)
install: all $(SUBDIRS)
I'm not sure it's defined as to whether the SUBDIRS targets will get
invoked with TARGET=all or TARGET=install. (The behavior is
TARGET=install, but I can't tell from the man page whether this is
deliberate or an accident of the implementation.)
I could do
all: THIRDPARTYLICENSE
install: all $(SUBDIRS)
but then "make all" will build *only* THIRDPARTYLICENSE and nothing
else, which is broken.
So I think what I want to do is
all install: THIRDPARTYLICENSE $(SUBDIRS)
Any objections?
thanks,
mike
