hello in bash () denotes a subshell
in your case dt is a shell variable and not a process so you cant embed it in ( )
use {} instead aka p.e. (parameter expansion)
all:
dt = $(shell date)
echo "${dt}"

Hi.
There are 3 parts to a rule: target, dependencies, commands. The commands are, essentially, shell commands. For example:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# @(#) s1 Demonstrate commands for a rule.
echo
set +o nounset
LC_ALL=C ; LANG=C ; export LC_ALL LANG
echo "Environment: LC_ALL = $LC_ALL, LANG = $LANG"
echo "(Versions displayed with local utility \"version\")"
version >/dev/null 2>&1 && version "=o" $(_eat $0 $1) make
set -o nounset
echo
FILE=${1-Makefile}
echo " Data file $FILE:"
cat $FILE
echo
echo " Results:"
make
exit 0
producing:
Code:
% ./s1
Environment: LC_ALL = C, LANG = C
(Versions displayed with local utility "version")
OS, ker|rel, machine: Linux, 2.6.26-2-amd64, x86_64
Distribution : Debian GNU/Linux 5.0
GNU bash 3.2.39
GNU Make 3.81
Data file Makefile:
# 2009.11.23 / Demonstration Makefile for setting variable with
# date.
t1 = $(shell date)
all:
echo t1 set to $(t1)
Results:
echo t1 set to Mon Nov 23 20:06:24 CST 2009
t1 set to Mon Nov 23 20:06:24 CST 2009
In your Makfile snippet, the
Code:
dt = ..
is taken as a command, which it clearly is not.
So in addition to the parts of a rule, it would be good to learn that you can help others help you by posting the exact error message, and often the version of the program you are using.
