<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Hello,<br>
<br>
The scripts generated by libtool aren't part of the final delivery. The executables in .libs/ will get installed during 'make install' into their final destination and then libtool will (re)link executables against the freshly installed libraries. This is why
a successful 'make install' is needed and then the result could get copied to the target host.<span style="color:windowtext"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:windowtext"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:windowtext">OK – I understand that. However on my cross-compilation environment, …/syslog-ng/.libs/syslog-ng is not getting built. It simply isn’t there and I’m not seeing any errors indicating it wasn’t built.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><br>
<br>
gmake compares timestamps of source and compiled files to track dependencies so if there was a change after the build process then reconfigure / rebuild gets triggered - this should get avoided but it is more or less impossible to guess what happened on your
system after running make... For example many years ago I had issues with certain filesystems not storing fractions of seconds so timestamps were rounded to seconds and comparision became a bit stochastic...<span style="color:windowtext"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:windowtext"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:windowtext">OK -- We’ll try switching to make instead of gmake.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
