libflame users,

There is a bug in the libflame Makefile that only manifests on certain systems:

Makefile:394: *** recipe commences before first target. Stop.

Unfortunately, we haven't been able to figure out why this bug manifests on some systems and not others.

The known workaround is to modify the Makefile as follows: Remove the four lines, starting at line 374:

define EOL
<blank line>
<blank line>
endef

Hopefully that will allow you to proceed. Please let us know if you have any further issues.

Regards,
Field
