End of make output - specifying -j1 stops this race...

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../rcfile_y.c', needed by `fetchmail.pot'.
 Stop.

Proposed Patch

This should fix it fairly bluntly. With recursive make files you cannot really
express the real dependencies. (I'm sure I recall a missive on Recursive Make
Considered Harmful). I can send it upstream as well if you like.

This has been fixed in 6.2.5. I know this bug is ridiculously old... do you still need version 6.2.4?

Thanks for the fix... looks like another dev fixed it and never checked bugs.
Comment 3 Loz Hygate 2004-07-09 07:01:27 UTC
I don't need the old version, though this has reminded me to check my overlay directory :-)
