Re: gcc-2.95.2 make depend question


Andreas,

All I can say is WOW!

Why isn't this a software development tool?

I would have never guessed that makedepend was actually in the
XFree86-devel-3.3.3.1-58mdk package as /usr/X11R6/bin/makedepend.

Thank you for opening my eyes.  Now on to more important work ... i.e.
how do we get this useful tool elevate to the Software Development
Support Category?  Is this possible?
