  • Build failure - No rule to make target sbbs4defs.h

    From Mewcenary@1:103/705 to All on Friday, January 17, 2025 11:35:12
    Hi all,

    I'm attempting to update my Linux Synchronet build.

    Pulling the repository down etc is working fine, but the build is failing with the following:

    Compiling pktdump.c
    Linking gcc.linux.x64.exe.release/pktdump
    Compiling fmsgdump.c
    Linking gcc.linux.x64.exe.release/fmsgdump
    Compiling trashman.c
    Linking gcc.linux.x64.exe.release/trashman
    make: *** No rule to make target 'sbbs4defs.h', needed by 'gcc.linux.x64.obj.release/upgrade_to_v319.o'. Stop.

    Any pointers on how to resolve?

    Same error if I use the latest code or the main release tag.

    Thanks,

    Tristan.

    Looks like a stale dependency (that file doesn't exist and shouldn't be referenced anywhere). Run 'make clean' first.

    I'm attempting to update my Linux Synchronet build.

    Compiling trashman.c
    Linking gcc.linux.x64.exe.release/trashman
    make: *** No rule to make target 'sbbs4defs.h', needed by 'gcc.linux.x64.obj.release/upgrade_to_v319.o'. Stop.

    This is now solved. I did a fresh git checkout in a brand new directory and everything went smoothly.

    Tris.

    Next time, just 'make clean'. :-)
