If, for some reason, that doesn't work, you can remove the Depend 
directories manually, and that should fix it as well.

I think I've actually seen this problem in my build tree as well, and 
srcdir!=objdir for me too.  So changing from srcdir==objdir to 
srcdir!=objdir may not magically solve the problem.

I think the problem Valery is talking about is that when you run 'cvs
up', it complains about Depend, Debug, Release, and Profile dirs, in
EVERY subdirectory (? Debug, etc).

I think it's unrelated to the Makefile issue he mentioned earlier.
Correct me if I'm wrong, Vallery.

you are right.

I should have had to post this issue as sepparate mail to avoid
misunderstanding.
