make problem

[Ivo Abeloos]

Hi everybody,

I have a little make problem.  Consider the following file testfile.proto:

ver XX.X
ver XX.X

When I perform a sed -e "" testfile.proto on it, it gives me the contents of
the file on stdout, which is normal.  When I try to do this from within a
makefile, it refuses to do anything:

testfile: testfile.proto
    echo 'Test the make'
    sed -e "" testfile.proto

This is all, the echo does its thing but sed returns nothing!

Anybody any suggestions?

Thanx,

Ivo
