mkdir -p would create a directory where a file is supposed to be. Let's say you have hello.c, but no hello.o.If you run make -t it'll create an empty hello.o. Then you can update hello.c and run make again and it'll build a new hello.o from the new hello.c. If there was a directory called 'hello.o' then a file 'hello.o' cannot be created. In your particular case, why don't you build your directories before you run make -t? $ make dir $ make -t regards, Dmitry
