Re: [bug-gsrc] problem with building gnu/hello

[carl hansen]

looking at gnu/hello/Makefile we see:


include ../../gar.lib/info.mk
include ../../gar.lib/auto.mk
include config.mk

looking at ../../gar.lib/info.mk

we see that the first target is:

post-install:
    printf "[$(OK)install-info$(OFF)] $(MSG)Installing entries to the Info directory$(OFF)\n"
    .............

so the default target is the first target, which installs the ".info" files.

Probably what was meant was to put ../../gar.lib/auto.mk BEFORE

../../gar.lib/info.mk

I've noticed this behaviour on other packages as well.
