This in itself is, of course, not a bug in ScummVM. However, I'm curious about this which I found at the end of Makefile.common: \# Include the dependency tracking files. We add /dev/null at the end \# of the list to avoid a warning/error if no .d file exist -include $\(wildcard $\(addsuffix /\*.d,$\(DEPDIRS\)\)\) /dev/null Is the inclusion of /dev/null actually necessary here? According to the documentation for GNU Make 3.81, the very purpose of using ""-include"" instead of ""include"" is to suppress errors and warnings. }}} {{{#!div style=""font-size: 75%"" Ticket imported from: !#1803020.
