If the modification time of the library is in future (beyond the time stamp you get on your .f90 file after touching it), make will think it is up to date and will not build anything. Perhaps the `lb' tool is doing something twisted? In general, if make spits out messages like `Clock skew detected, your build may be incomplete', watch out. Your build *may* be incomplete :-) Usually things like these happen only on networked file systems, where the file server and the client run different times. Building on a local file system usually succeeds in that situation. You should make sure your client is always running at the same time, or more in future, than your file server (for instance, by using a network time protocol). Otherwise, as files are created on the server, they get future (as seen by your workstation) timestamps and make will be confused. HTH, //lat -- With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. --RFC1925, "The Twelve Networking Truths" - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help". --part0_903532659_boundary-- - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
