The bug is due to a stupid make misfeature. The article [1] contains much more information but in a nutshell, the following code: a b: c bla is equivalent to: a: c bla b: c bla This is bad because in parallel runs (make -j typically), "bla" can be run TWICE and even worse, twice in PARALLEL. Obviously the result will be completely unexpected. This is a real bummer because on the other hand, the following code: %.c %.h: %:in bla actually expresses the fact that bla produces two files. For some reasons, pattern rules work differently from implicit rules. This commit attempts to fix the problem with lang.h by rewriting (simplified): lang.c lang.h: lang.in genlang as lang.h: lang.in genlang lang.c: lang.h This works (it correctly expresses the dependency chain and ensures genlang runs once) but as one drawback: if one manually removes lang.c, then genlang will not re-run since the second rule does nothing. This is minor drawback since no one ever removes lang.c manually and "clean" removes lang.h which triggers a rebuild.

Build Your Own Rockbox
1. Clone 'rockbox' from git (or extract a downloaded archive).
$ git clone git://git.rockbox.org/rockbox
or
$ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2
2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.
$ cd rockbox
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/
$ which sh-elf-gcc
$ which perl
4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
Archos.
$ ../tools/configure
5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.
6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.
$ make
$ make zip
7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
*smile*.
If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:
$ mkdir build-fmrecorder
$ cd build-fmrecorder
$ ../tools/configure
$ mkdir build-player
$ cd build-player
$ ../tools/configure
