Hello,
I am using the CVS java-gnome version. I noticed the following problem
in the installation targets:
$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target `gnome', needed by `install'. Stop.
This is caused by a line in Makefile:
install: gnome glade_install
because there is no "gnome" target. Why? Because the original
Makefile.in line is:
install: @INSTALL_TARGETS@_install
and INSTALL_TARGETS is defined as "gnome glade". Clearly, appending
_install to a @ substitution will not work when the substituted variable
contains more than one element...
This would be simple to fix:
install: $(addsuffix _install,@INSTALL_TARGETS@)
Except that this requires a GNU make to be used. If a requirement for
GNU make is not wanted, then the other approach is to modify all
INSTALL_TARGET variable assignments in configure.in to themselves
include the _install prefix.
PS. This applies to the uninstall target as well.
PPS. A wish: remove @ from all commands for install/uninstall targets.
It is always disconcerting when "make install" does something that is
not shown. It makes finding the real culprit for this harder:
$ make install
/usr/bin/install -c -m644 lib/libGTKJava.so.0.8.0 /l/beta/lib
ln: `/l/beta/lib/libGTKJava.so': File exists
(the real culprit is not any "ln" that might be called by
/usr/bin/install, but the next line, which is @ln ...)
PPPS. And one should always add a "-rm -f xxxx" before using $(LN_S)
just in case the target already exists.
