- The GTK+ makefiles will mostly work with different versions
- of <command>make</command>, however, there tends to be
- a few incompatibilities, so the GTK+ team recommends
- installing <ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/software/make">GNU
- make</ulink> if you don't already have it on your system
- and using it. (It may be called <command>gmake</command>
- rather than <command>make</command>.)
+ The GLib Makefiles make use of several features specific to
+ <ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/software/make">GNU
+ make</ulink>, and will not build correctly with other
+ versions of <command>make</command>. You will need to
+ install it if you don't already have it on your system. (It
+ may be called <command>gmake</command> rather than
+ <command>make</command>.)
