I see lots and lots of messages about circular pdf/svg dependencies and can't figure out where they are coming from.

Here is a MRE with a broken set of rules: http://lalashan.mcmaster.ca/theobio/projects/index.php/Latex_making.

And here is a wild example where the making works, but produces lots of warnings (not guaranteed to persist, but you should be able to reconstruct it by sync-ing if necessary) http://lalashan.mcmaster.ca/theobio/lab/index.php/Special:GetProjectFile?project=Fsrn_heterogeneity_ms&make=false&filename=FSRNms.pdf.make.log.

AFAICT, the rules actually make what they need to make, but the warnings are confusing, especially to my users.

    Yeah, that's because I added a %.pdf : %.svg rule for use in the markup processing, when we already have a %.svg : %.pdf rule for making tex figures into vector graphics for the wiki. I think I'm having trouble with it too. We should remove the new rule and I'll have to do something smarter with that.

    Wild, meaning naturally occuring, not radically interesting...

    Don't know why I couldn't find the new rule. In the past, I've dealt with these situations simply by giving the newer targets longer names, e.g. target.pdf.svg, or target.display.svg

    Ha ha!

    In this case I think I should just take the rule out and figure out what I want sometime later.

    ps. you probably didn't see it because it's hidden in makefile-after-tex-output-format, which is intended to be used only when the output format is .tex, in fact, why are you seeing it at all? I should look into that too.

    Still weirdness going on with that new after- file. http://lalashan.mcmaster.ca/theobio/lab/index.php/Keegan_PhD was repeatedly replacing the source file hetero.tex with the text from your txtlisting command. I now have an explicit rule for hetero.tex

      I see. I've commented out that recipe now.
