The suffix list message will happen with some versions/installations of 'make' and can be safely ignored. It generally means that no files with the extension .c, .cc, .C, .p, .f, .F, .r, .y, .l, .s, .S, et cetera can be found in a particular directory. So, the message will usually be given in directories with no source code (etc). HTH Alan Bleasby EBI
