I think you'll find that this is due to the dropping of support for Windows paths in the new (3.81) version of make. I suspect $(RELEASEDIR) has a ':' in it somewhere. Try something like this: RELEASEDIR:=$(shell cygpath -u $(RELEASEDIR)) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
