The Makefile is not safe somehow with -j (parallel build). Try doing "make depend" and try again. The dependencies are not up-to-date I see. When I do "make depends", it adds the following dependencies: objects/if_perl.o: auto/if_perl.c vim.h auto/config.h feature.h os_unix.h \ auto/osdef.h ascii.h keymap.h term.h macros.h option.h structs.h \ regexp.h gui.h gui_beval.h proto/gui_beval.pro ex_cmds.h proto.h \ globals.h farsi.h arabic.h I can't guarantee that this will be enough to make make work with parallel builds though. Tracking the missing dependencies in the makefile can be tricky I think. A tool which could help is "clearmake" (I don't have it), which audits the build at the OS level and which can tell what what are all the files used to build each derived objects (the files created by the build such as *.o, *a, executables). -- Dominique -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
