Looks like I have to push for such a feature to be integrated/implemented
in Automake, then :-/
Something like (in a Makefile.am file):
SUBDIRS = lib apps
lib-failure: [optional user-configurable rule]
cat $(top_srcdir)/docs/libs/troubleshooting
If Automake saw such a rule, it would trap make for the corresponding subdir
to run $(MAKE) on the $(subdir)-failure rule on compilation errors...
Could this be an interesting feature for Automake? I can't be the only
guy in the world that sees the usefulness of something like this...
