Re: Issue 1852 in lilypond: manuals needs more explicit dependencies

Comment #1 on issue 1852 by address@hidden: manuals needs more  
explicit dependencies
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1852

lilypond-book produces *.dep files tracking the dependencies of *.tely  
project files. These are included into the build process in  
stepmake/stepmake/generic-targets.make:

-include $(outdir)/dummy.dep $(wildcard $(outdir)/*.dep)

The - suppresses any error messages, the dummy.dep files are always created  
empty.

These *.dep files are supposed to be parsed by make and effectively add  
dependencies for each input .tely file. The problem is that the dependency  
rules in the *.dep files do not match the dependency rules during the build  
process.

For example, Documentation/out/usage.dep has

/home/jrioux/git/lilypond/Documentation/out/usage.texi: usage.tely  
macros.itexi /home/jrioux/git/lilypond/Documentation/out/version.itexi  
common-macros.itexi usage/running.itely usage/updating.itely  
usage/lilypond-book.itely usage/external.itely

Notice the mixing of absolute and relative paths. The relative paths are  
relative to Documentation, which is good. Adjusting lilypond-book.py to use  
a relative path in the target seems to fix the issue.
