[bug #66011] dependencies after a non-existing file are silently ignored

[Dmitry Goncharov]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #66011 (group make):

If you need such a prerequisite and the prerequisite is missing, then the
makefile needs to have a rule to build such a prerequisite.
Depending on your situation this rule can be either a proper rule or dummy
rule like


nonexisting.h:;


In the end, your object files depends on nonexisting.h and nonexisting.h does
not exist and there is no rule to build nonexisting.h.
