Re: Iperf build break with emake.

2008-06-18 Thread Kamaljit Singh
I've used emake and always get this error irrespective of package. Ofcourse, this happens only when something changes and automake decides to recreate configure and then rerun it. All I've been able to trace is that emake (probably) runs the configure script on one of its agents and that creates t

Exactly. My solution is similar to what you suggest. I was just hoping that I'd missed something. Since automake is 'just' perl it seems to be fairly hackable. If I come up with anything worth sharing I'll pass it along. --glenn > -Original Message- > From: Ralf Wildenhues [mailto:[EMAI

Hi all, If I try to build iperf with standard linux make, then it builds fine. But instead if I use Electronic Make (emake) utility, then the build breaks. make[4]: conftest.make: No such file or directory make[4]: *** No rule to make target `conftest.make'. Stop. make[4]: confmf: No such

I believe that I found the answer to my poorly asked question. My confusion started when I noticed that target lists that begin with check_ are special in that they are only built when 'make check' is executed. This is reasonable since you probably want to do a complete build before building any
