This points to the Python setup script, since we reference it in a couple of places. While we're there correct two small problems: 1) setup.py is part of the checked in sources and so lives in $(PYLIBFDT_srcdir) not $(PYLIBFDT_objdir) [this only worked because those are the same by default] 2) The module itself should depend on the setup script so it is rebuilt if the script is changed Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- pylibfdt/Makefile.pylibfdt | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/pylibfdt/Makefile.pylibfdt b/pylibfdt/Makefile.pylibfdt index 3c6ae44..bbd6518 100644 --- a/pylibfdt/Makefile.pylibfdt +++ b/pylibfdt/Makefile.pylibfdt @@ -4,12 +4,14 @@ PYLIBFDT_srcs = $(PYLIBFDT_srcdir)/libfdt.i PYMODULE = $(PYLIBFDT_objdir)/_libfdt.so +SETUP = $(PYLIBFDT_srcdir)/setup.py + define run_setup VERSION="$(dtc_version)" - $(PYLIBFDT_objdir)/setup.py --quiet $(1) + $(SETUP) --quiet $(1) endef -$(PYMODULE): $(PYLIBFDT_srcs) $(LIBFDT_archive) +$(PYMODULE): $(PYLIBFDT_srcs) $(LIBFDT_archive) $(SETUP) @$(VECHO) PYMOD $@ $(call run_setup, build_ext --build-lib=$(PYLIBFDT_objdir)) -- 2.17.1
