I'm stuck on a make problem I'm having.
What I want is to list lots of dependencies like:
foo:: dep1
foo:: dep2
foo:: dep3
.
.
.
then provide 1 line that says 'if foo is out of date rebuild it with the
following command'.
but if I just do:
foo::
command to rebuild
then make always wants to rebuild foo.
I know this is maybe an ugly way to write the depends, but for other
reasons (long story), its really really convienient in my particular case.
Suggestions?
Thanks
