Subject: | Makefile problem on case-insensitive systems (e.g. Win32) |
This is actually the same as #60956, but that bug is years old and I
don't see an obvious way to add updated information.
This is what's happening:
Makefile.PL has a few convenience 'make' targets at the end. One of
them is 'makefile', which forcibly rebuilds the Makefile.
On a case-insensitive system (Windows for certain; I think maybe Mac OS
as well), the string 'makefile' matches the filename 'Makefile', causing
nmake to *always* forcibly rebuild the Makefile, first thing.
Removing the 'makefile' target added at the end of Makefile.PL allows
the project to build and install successfully.
