[Coin-discuss] why does 'make clean' executed in Bcp-dir execute rm -rf / in OSX 10.2.8?

[Laszlo Ladanyi]

I think this should be better emphasized in docs and faqs...:

     Never, ever do any sort of make in the Bcp subdirectory.

The makefile there is to be included from the Makefile of the application
using BCP. That defines BCPROOT. See, e.g., Makefile and Makefile.maxcut in
Examples/Maxcut.

--Laci

PS: I hope you didn't do the make clean as root...
