Bug in coreutils/man/Makefile.am

[Daniel Richard G.]

Building coreutils-5.2.1 on a Sun machine, with the source tree on a 
separate read-only NFS mount:

----(cut here)----
Making all in src
make  all-am
Making all in doc
Making all in man
make: Fatal error: Don't know how to make target `../src/basename.c'
Current working directory /tmp/coreutils-5.2.1/man
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive'
Current working directory /tmp/coreutils-5.2.1
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all'
address@hidden:/tmp/coreutils-5.2.1> 
----(cut here)----

In man/Makefile.am, dependencies are specified as e.g.

  foo.1:  $(common_dep)  $(srcdir)/foo.x  ../src/foo.c

where you probably meant something more like

  foo.1:  $(common_dep)  $(srcdir)/foo.x  $(top_srcdir)/src/foo.c
