>Description:
Makefiles involving suffix targets do not work properly.
The following error is produced with multiple build directories:
cat ../../../src/util/profile/profile.hin prof_err.h > profile.h
cat: cannot open prof_err.h
*** Error code 2
make: Warning: Command failed for target `profile.h' (on host lindy)
Current working directory /home2/matt/krb/krb5-1.0pl1/solaris2.5/util/profile
If this is fixed by creating prof_err.h by hand (i.e. running
awk with the explicit filenames), then 'make' fails to create any of the
.o files for the util/profile directory. Presumably if the .o files are
all compiled by hand, other errors will show up in other directories.
>How-To-Repeat:
Follow the instructions in section 3.3.2 of the Installation Guide.
>Fix:
Changes of the following sorts should be made to the appropriate
Makefiles:
(1) remove '.SUFFIXES:' lines
(2) targets like .et.h: should be rewritten as %.h:
$< should be rewritten as $*.et
(3) targets like .c.o: should be rewritten as %.o:
