Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I tried to compile (wery old) xview/openlook project which is "controlled" by Imakefile.
The **imake** did it's job then some **Makefile**s was generated.
When running **make** I got following error message:
```
gcc: warning: LinuxMachineDefines: linker input file unused because linking not done
gcc: error: LinuxMachineDefines: linker input file not found: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [Makefile:1214: ol_button.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/david/RaD/source/xview/lib/libolgx'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1166: all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/david/RaD/source/xview/lib'
make: *** [Makefile:1190: all] Error 2
```
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I checked files for presence of string LinuxMachineDefines and I found them in linux.cf. I realized that structure of defines in linux.cf and Imake.cf is not obvious for me.
* What was the outcome of this action?
N/A
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Generated Makefiles, with no artifacts like this.
With Regards David D.
