Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: make
If make is invoked as follows
$ make -C broken
The following error messages are printed:
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent
directories: No such file or directory
pwd: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent
directories: No such file or directory
if instead make is executed inside the directory, no error is printed:
$ cd broken
$ make
<correct result printed>
The directory broken contains the following Makefile:
> SHELL := /bin/bash
> -include ../afilethatdoesnotexist
> all:
> pwd
The bug is not triggered if the SHELL line is removed or if the
"include" line is removed. If the included file does exist, the bug is
still triggered.
Ubuntu release:
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10
We also updated the installation (as of today) and the bug still
triggers.
** Affects: make (Ubuntu)
