Description Brian Lane 2010-09-07 20:52:02 UTC

isomd5sum hasn't changed since 6/30/2010, and it still builds fine in rawhide which uses make 3.81

In f14, with make 3.82, it fails on a library dependency:

This is from hno on bug 631371 comment #7

Makefile says:

libimplantisomd5.a: libimplantisomd5.a(libimplantisomd5.o md5.o)

libcheckisomd5.a: libcheckisomd5.a(libcheckisomd5.o md5.o)

The F14 make for some reason dislikes this constructs like this in
dependencies. If rewritten as follow it works

libimplantisomd5.a: libimplantisomd5.a(libimplantisomd5.o) \
                    libimplantisomd5.a(md5.o)

libcheckisomd5.a: libcheckisomd5.a(libcheckisomd5.o) \
                  libcheckisomd5.a(md5.o)

This smells like a F14 make bug. There is nothing wrong with the original rule.

Comment 1 Petr Machata 2010-09-10 13:26:23 UTC

Agreed, that should work.  Reproducer:
x1 x2:; echo "$@" > $@
xxx: xxx(x1 x2)

Comment 2 Jesse Keating 2010-09-10 18:01:27 UTC

Since this has already gone into stable, you'll need to revert to an older one with an epoch build, or get a fix from upstream.  But the e:n-v-r must increase either way.
