Make problem

I am new to make file concepts. All I need to know whether
Is it possible to extract missing directories in the source
while executing make -n?For example missing text-utils directory in my
source.Or any option available in make that
will throw error messages about missing directories when using make -n
?

Thanks in advance

You are lost. comp.lang.c is not the right place. comp.programming perhaps?

Or comp.unix.programmer.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.

Make is not specific to Unix either. I've used various flavors as far
back as CP/M in the 80's. Anything with a command shell is a suspect
target for a make program.

Sure, but its origins are on Unix, and the folks in
comp.unix.programmer are likely to be willing and able to help.
