Hi,
[Please retain the CC to address@hidden so
that the Debian Bug Tracking system can record your input]
This problem was reported by a Debian user. I looked through
the manual to see if there is any restriction on the stem section of
a pattern match, but I did not see any prohibitions, so this should
work.
======================================================================
Consider the following Makefile:
%: bar/%.foo
@echo success
Suppose that the following files exist:
bar/a.foo
bar/b/c.foo
"make a" prints "success", but "make b/c" says:
make: *** No rule to make target `b/c'. Stop.
I'm almost certain this used to work.
======================================================================
