Can you show a self-contained excerpt from this Makefile, where all the dependencies and the corresponding rules of a single xx/yy/EMAILADDR.send target are spelled out? Also, are there any recursive Make invocations in this Makefile, and if so, can you show the targets/rules which run them? _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list Help-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
