[cdt-dev] RE: Make won't handle colons in makefile variables
|
Tomas,
I had the same problem with cygwin make 3.81, and the solution of downgrading it to 3.80 works for me. Here is what I did to get it work:
1. Use cygwin setup to uninstall make 3.81.
2. Download make 3.80 package
http://cygwin.paracoda.com/release/make/make-3.80-1.tar.bz2
3. Under cygwin shell, go to the root directory "/", do following
tar jxvf make-3.80-1.tar.bz2
Thanks,
--alex
