Re: [help-gengetopt] gengetopt and gmake

[Kevin Musker]

This succeeds in building the targets, but only because when it looks
for either of the files, both are created.

This causes problems at the end, when gmake deletes all intermediate
files. Because it didn't generate some
of them, they just appeared (in the case of one of the .c files -
produced from applying the rule to a required getopt
header), then gmake thinks that it existed all along, and so it doesn't
delete the file upon completion.

I know it's a really picky case, but if these generated files end up
lying around, they will get checked into the
source repository...

Thanks,

Kev.
