Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 458455
rhpl should use $(MAKE), not make
Last modified: 2008-08-11 13:19:27 EDT
Description of problem: I'm trying to compile rhpl on another platform, and it uses a non-GNU make. Using gmake fixes this, but the Makefile explicitly specifies 'make' rather than the traditional $(MAKE). A patch is included below. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.216 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run make 2. it fails Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: diff -ru rhpl-0.216/Makefile rhpl-0.216-mod//Makefile --- rhpl-0.216/Makefile Fri Jun 13 11:07:58 2008 +++ rhpl-0.216-mod//Makefile Fri Aug 8 11:03:02 2008 @@ -14,16 +14,16 @@ all: subdirs subdirs: - for d in $(SUBDIRS); do make -C $$d; [ $$? = 0 ] || exit 1; done + for d in $(SUBDIRS); do $(MAKE) -C $$d; [ $$? = 0 ] || exit 1; done clean: - for d in $(SUBDIRS); do make -C $$d clean; done + for d in $(SUBDIRS); do $(MAKE) -C $$d clean; done rm -f *.o *.so *.lo *.a *.pyc install: all mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)/$(PYDIR) - for d in $(SUBDIRS); do make -C $$d install; done + for d in $(SUBDIRS); do $(MAKE) -C $$d install; done $(PYTHON) -c "import compileall; compileall.compile_dir('$(DESTDIR)/$(PYDIR)', 3, '$(PYDIR)', 1)"
This will be fixed in the next build of rhpl for Rawhide, and therefore the next major release of RHEL. If you need this fixed in an update release of RHEL5, please talk to your support representative who will raise this issue through the appropriate channels. Thanks.
