This is one of many anachronisms in bsd.README. Bruce State Changed From-To: open->closed bde explained the cause for the reported problem and I concur. bde explained this to me a few months ago too, so don't feel bad ;-> |
/usr/share/mk/bsd.README, when refering to bsd.prog.mk, states: clean: remove the program, any object files and the files a.out, Errs, errs, mklog, and ${PROG}.core. however it only seem to do ${PROG} and the object files. How-To-Repeat: Go to a directory containing a Makefile that .includes bsd.prog.mk touch a.out ${PROG}.core etc make clean
