As I said, I am not obsessed with build system replacement. I started it as a necessity because I was bitten several times with the modification of files not being detected. I thought that it is a sign that build system is not maintained and is bit rotting. After recent events (your fix and my testing) I now see that 1. There are people (you) who understand and maintain current build system; 2. The breakage is not as widespread as I thought - actually, all .c files are properly tracked. Or almost all - I did not check all possibilities, maybe there are a few more obscure .config's with problems. > Adding header file dependencies would be a good thing.

Are you willing to look into it? -- vda _______________________________________________ uClibc mailing list [email protected] http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uclibc
