Hi,
I noticed that 'make -n' (dry run) is not always like dry, like
mentioned in the help:
-n, --just-print, --dry-run, --recon
Don't actually run any commands; just print them.
In my case I have an include statement, which include files which
aren't available at make-start-time, but make knows how to generate
them.
Thus the bug is: If I run 'make -n' then the commands to generate the included
files are actually run.
I am using make 3.81.
Best regards
Georg Sauthoff
