Hello,

I expect that the line

a_b_d_e_f_g_SOURCES = a/b/d-e-f.g.c

to be superflous, as this is a “Default _SOURCE”, but `make` fails with

make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'a/b/d-e-f.c', needed by 'a/b/d_e_f_g-d-e-f.o'.  Stop

g is lost from the tagret.

…_PROGRAMS = a/b/c-e-f.g

Note, that there is a dot before g in both _SOURCES ad _PROGRAMS, but the default extension was not changed from .c .

I use Automake 1.16.1.

Regards
  Дилян

i can't reproduce this.  your snippet seems to have a typo:
…_PROGRAMS = a/b/c-e-f.g
a_b_d_e_f_g_SOURCES = ...
your PROGRAMS is set to .../c-... but your SOURCES variable is ..._d_...

can you please attach full configure.ac & Makefile.am that reproduces ?

Hello,

I cannot attach my full configure.ac .

I wrote the email in 2019 and in the meantime have forgotten any
context.

Greetings
