Yes, the dependency file of pdflatex can be different.
So perhaps the correct solution is to use different dependency files for
latex & pdflatex:
+++ LaTeX.C Wed Aug 30 00:12:57 2000
@@ -71,6 +71,8 @@ LaTeX::LaTeX(string const & latex, strin
{
num_errors = 0;
depfile = file + ".dep";
+ if (prefixIs(cmd, "pdf")) // Do we use pdflatex ?
+ depfile += "-pdf";
}
The above change (without changing LaTeX::run) fixes the problem mentioned
above.
I've attached an updated patch.

I used a script to add new files to the patch. I've now fixed the script.
