It automatically builds executable programs and libraries from source code by reading files called Makefiles which specify how to derive the target program. (Wikipedia). As OSNews now reports, support for OS/2 (EMX), Xenix, Cray and also AmigaOS will be removed in GNU Make starting with the upcoming version. Update: (03.11.2022, 19:30, dr) Obviously triggered by our article, discussions have developed especially in various Discord servers which have led to some "protest mails". The maintainer of GNU Make, Paul Smith, responded to one of the mails and asked to stop writing mails: "While it's good that AmigaOS as an operating system is still under active development, what I care about is whether anyone is maintaining *GNU make* on AmigaOS. I have not received a single patch for an AmigaOS problem with GNU make since 1996. I haven't received a single response from anyone on AmigaOS to any request for anyone to test a release candidate, or a new release, in I don't know how many releases....But if AmigaOS is not updating to newer versions of GNU make, then I don't want to maintain the (not insignificant amount of) special-case code currently existing to (not really) support it, in future releases. Fundamentally, for non-traditional operating systems it's not enough to just ask for it to be maintained. Someone has to volunteer to actively participate in the maintenance effort."

Kargin informs - with English subtitles and background music - about the history of the board, the installation in an unusual case, the installation of AmigaOS 4.1 and much more. Update: (10.11.2022, 15:00, cg) After the video had to be taken offline due to a copyright complaint, Kargin now provides an updated version with the disputed parts replaced with new footage.
