#35683 [Opn->Bgs]: OVERALL_TARGET uses += not = in Makefile.frag

ID: 35683 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: to2958 at sbc dot com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Informix related Operating System: AIX 4.3.3 PHP Version: 5CVS-2005-12-15 (snap) New Comment: Install GNU tools. gmake, etc. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-15 15:32:50] to2958 at sbc dot com Description: ------------ There is a += in the ext/informix/Makefile.frag for the OVERALL_TARGET which I don't think is right. I've never seen this used in Makefiles though I'm not an expert. This prevents make from working and gives me this: make: make 1254-025 There must be an existing description file or specify a target. When I do the patch below and simply replace the += with = the make runs fine. I didn't really see related bugs nor the use of += in other projects Thanks Reproduce code: --------------- --- Makefile.frag.orig Thu Dec 15 08:23:46 2005 +++ Makefile.frag Thu Dec 15 08:24:01 2005 @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ -OVERALL_TARGET += $(srcdir)/ifx.c +OVERALL_TARGET = $(srcdir)/ifx.c $(srcdir)/ifx.c: $(srcdir)/ifx.ec (if test -d $(INFORMIXDIR); then \ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35683&edit=1
