I'm getting further. What's the proper way to do an include?
[dan at polo:~] $ cat Makefile
A?="things"
all:
@echo A is $A
if [ -r ${HOME}/.bacula-regress ] ; then \
echo loading tha file; \
.include "${HOME}/.bacula-regress" ; \
fi
@echo A is $A
[dan at polo:~] $ cat .bacula-regress
BACULA_SOURCE="${HOME}/src/bacula-cvs"
EMAIL=dan+bacula at langille.org
AUTOCHANGER="/dev/null"
A="stuff"
echo yes, we have stuff here.
[dan at polo:~] $ make
A is things
if [ -r /home/dan/.bacula-regress ] ; then echo loading tha file;
.include "/home/dan/.bacula-regress" ; fi
loading tha file
.include: not found
