Makefile -> pc precedence over c
Hi All,

I have created a common makefile that compiles both pc and c files.

i have created the dependency between the files as

.pc.o:
-----------
.c.o:
-----------

I will be deleting the .c files created from the .pc files, once the object file is created. ( better storage maintenance)

so when i have a rule like

foo: foo.o
-----

for building foo.o the precedence always goes for .c.o, i mean the make file checks for foo.c first and builds it.

What i want is to change the precedence to .pc, i.e

when i build foo, the precedence should first go to
.pc.o rule and then to .c.o.

how can i achieve that?

dh_link

DH_LINK(1)							     Debhelper								DH_LINK(1)

NAME

       dh_link - create symlinks in package build directories

SYNOPSIS

       dh_link [debhelperoptions] [-A] [-Xitem] [sourcedestination...]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_link is a debhelper program that creates symlinks in package build directories.

       dh_link accepts a list of pairs of source and destination files. The source files are the already existing files that will be symlinked
       from. The destination files are the symlinks that will be created. There must be an equal number of source and destination files specified.

       Be sure you do specify the full filename to both the source and destination files (unlike you would do if you were using something like
       ln(1)).

       dh_link will generate symlinks that comply with Debian policy - absolute when policy says they should be absolute, and relative links with
       as short a path as possible. It will also create any subdirectories it needs to to put the symlinks in.

       dh_link also scans the package build tree for existing symlinks which do not conform to Debian policy, and corrects them (v4 or later).

FILES

       debian/package.links
	   Lists pairs of source and destination files to be symlinked. Each pair should be put on its own line, with the source and destination
	   separated by whitespace.

OPTIONS

       -A, --all
	   Create any links specified by command line parameters in ALL packages acted on, not just the first.

       -Xitem, --exclude=item
	   Do not correct symlinks that contain item anywhere in their filename from being corrected to comply with Debian policy.

       source destination ...
	   Create a file named destination as a link to a file named source. Do this in the package build directory of the first package acted on.
	   (Or in all packages if -A is specified.)

EXAMPLES

	dh_link usr/share/man/man1/foo.1 usr/share/man/man1/bar.1

       Make bar.1 be a symlink to foo.1

	dh_link var/lib/foo usr/lib/foo 
	  usr/share/man/man1/foo.1 usr/share/man/man1/bar.1

       Make /usr/lib/foo/ be a link to /var/lib/foo/, and bar.1 be a symlink to the foo.1

SEE ALSO

       debhelper(7)

       This program is a part of debhelper.
