Created attachment 690211 [details] phony-targets.patch Patch to fix the problem. in man-pages-extras-fr-0.8.1/Makefile, the target “afaire :” does not work: mfabian@ari:~/rpmsources/fedora/man-pages-fr/man-pages-extras-fr-0.8.1 (master) $ LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 make afaire make: « afaire » est à jour. mfabian@ari:~/rpmsources/fedora/man-pages-fr/man-pages-extras-fr-0.8.1 (master) $ (Problem is the same in f18 and rhel-6.4). This is because the existing folder “afaire/” has exactly the same name as the target. To make it work nevertheless, the target needs to be declared .PHONY like this: +.PHONY : afaire afaire : cd afaire ; \ make install ; http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Phony-Targets.html
