If you left them in place, make would not find anything to do because: - all sources are older than the corresponding .o files so no compilations are needed. - all .o files are older than libraries that include them, so no libraries need to be rebuilt. - nothing to link because the .o files and libraries are older than the executable Never forget that make is designed for speed, which it maximises by only doing the minimum amount of work needed to rebuild the target, which defaults to 'all'. Make decides what needs to be recreated by comparing the timestamps of each output file with the files it depends on and recreates the output if any dependency is more recent. > Doesn't depend the main target from a configure file ? > Not necessarily. In this case configure probably only recreated the Makefile. I'd expect every properly defined makefile to have a 'clean' target, so running "make clean; make" should force a full rebuild. Its up to you to know when this is necessary. Martin
