I think you're tripping over the difference between make and shell syntax here. In make, $(PWD) is a variable reference, not command substitution as in shell, and will work provided that a PWD environment variable exists, which in practice will depend mainly on the calling shell. $(pwd) would only work if a pwd environment variable exists, which is rare. My preferred way to write this would be REGRESSTMP = $(CURDIR)/regress (without the extraneous double-quotes, which are going to behave confusingly when substituted into a double-quoted string further down). -- Colin Watson [cjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx] _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
