[gnu.gdb.bug] problems with 'make TAGS'

hans@UMD5.UMD.EDU (Hans Breitenlohner) (02/23/90)

gdb 3.5 running on vax / Ultrix 3.0

make TAGS has two problems:

1. All five occurrences of {print $11} need to be changed to {print $10}.
   (in file createtags).
   At least that makes it work here.  If that is not generally true, then
   life becomes much more complicated.

2. Doing a 'make TAGS' after building my version of gdb says 'TAGS is up
   to date'.  In some way TAGS needs to sense when config.gdb is run.
   This could be done by making TAGS depend on config.status (in which
   case you could not build TAGS before running config.gdb) or by
   introducing a dummy file that gets touched every time config.gdb is run.
