Update of bug #23468 (project make): Status: None => Not A Bug Open/Closed: Open => Closed _______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #2: As Anonymous points out, this is a change that was required for POSIX conformance. Note you can overcome this by putting your long perl script in a make variable; instead of: foo: perl -e 'my multi- line perl script' you can use something like: PERL_SCRIPT = my multi- line perl script foo: perl -e '$(PERL_SCRIPT)' The latter will work the same in all versions of make, and is arguably easier to read and understand as well. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?23468> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
