Make returning "make: Nothing to be done for `all'."

  1. Bradley

    I'm following the screencast tutorial steps and make doesn't produce the desired results: 

    $ ruby extconf.rb
checking for ruby.h... yes
creating Makefile
$ make
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.

    Setup:

    • OS X 10.6.4
    • VIM 7.2.108
    • ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [universal-darwin10.0]

    Did you install using the Vimball? Maybe not all of the files were correctly extracted. You could try re-extracting if that is the case.

    If it did extract correctly then you should have the following in your ~/.vim/ruby/command-t directory: 

    Makefile
controller.rb
depend
ext.c
ext.h
extconf.rb
finder.rb
match.c
match.h
match_window.rb
matcher.c
matcher.h
prompt.rb
ruby_compat.h
scanner.rb
settings.rb
stub.rb
vim/screen.rb 
vim/window.rb
vim.rb

    I'm having the same problem:

    • OSX 10.6.7
    • ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [universal-darwin10.0]
    • MacVim 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled Aug 15 2010 22:03:01)
    • gcc:
    Using built-in specs.

Thread model: posix

    Here's the list of files extracted from the vimball:

    .
├── Makefile
├── controller.rb
├── extconf.rb
├── finder
│   ├── buffer_finder.rb
│   └── file_finder.rb
├── finder.rb

└── stub.rb

    Looks like I'm missing a bunch of stuff from your example. I tried downloading from both your site and Vimscripts. This is version command-t-1.1b2.vba. I also tried the previous two versions with the same result. Weird.

    Yes, I've seen this a few times. I think this may be a bug in the Vimball implementation itself (that it can silently fail to extract some files, despite appearing to have succeeded). Just re-extract it and the missing files should appear.

    I found that using an older version of Vim (7.2) and making sure to extract from same directory as the vimball did the trick. So... 

    $> cd ~/Downloads
$> /usr/bin/vim72 command-t-1.1b2.vba

    Then extract as normal using :so %.

    Happily finding files now. Thanks for the great plugin.

    Hi. the first few times I tried to extract the vimball. I quit out of the list of files extracted with out looking at all of them. It seems kind of silly , but when I pushed the space bar and scrolled through all the files it worked fine. Then I could make an Command-T was happy. And me too.

    Thank you much for this cool program.
