If the needed host utility is not found, current behavior is: $> make cscope GEN cscope ./scripts/tags.sh: line 140: cscope: command not found $> make gtags GEN gtags ./scripts/tags.sh: line 145: gtags: command not found $> make tags GEN tags xargs: ctags: No such file or directory sed: can't read tags: No such file or directory Makefile:1509: recipe for target 'tags' failed make: *** [tags] Error 2 $> make TAGS GEN TAGS xargs: etags: No such file or directory sed: can't read TAGS: No such file or directory Makefile:1509: recipe for target 'TAGS' failed make: *** [TAGS] Error 2 This patch allows to exit gracefully in such a situation: $> make cscope GEN cscope cscope - not installed? $> make gtags GEN gtags gtags - not installed? $> make tags GEN tags ctags - not installed? $> make TAGS GEN TAGS etags - not installed?
