It is much better to do #include "zlib.c" #include "ctype.c" and the Makefile adds -I$(TOPDIR)/fs/jffs2 -I$(TOPDIR)/lib. Then when sources are moved from one directory to another, the source does not change, only the Makefile. Relative paths are a pain in the neck in Makefiles, they are even more of a pain in source code. >TOPDIR = ../../.. TOPDIR := $(shell cd ../../..; /bin/pwd) is better, it returns an absolute path instead of a relative one. Keith Owens, kernel build maintainer
