[bug #21854] Dependency to a -l<libname> to be made in a not yet existing directory doesn't match(?)

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #21854 (project make):

You can bypass this easily by adding another rule like:

-lfunny_name: path_to_library_where_to_get_library.so
        #rules to place library where you want it

This dependency will be evaluated only when make does not resolve
-lfunny_name by itself, i.e. the library does not exist in your scanned
directory.

I use such technique in my Makefiles for about a year now and see no problems
with that.
