Subject: Makefile dependancies: scripts depending on configured kernel?
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2004 09:16:07 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <405E1427.6080309@stillhq.com> (raw)


Hey,

the top level Makefile specifies that the scripts depend on the kernel 
being configured before the scripts can be built:

scripts: scripts_basic include/config/MARKER
	$(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=$(@)

I think that this is probably a problem, because it means people can't 
build any of the documentation targets without having configured the kernel.

Do any of the scripts actually depend on a configured kernel to build? 
How can I verify that none of them need a configured kernel? Commenting 
out the dependancy didn't break anything.

Thanks,
Mikal
