I compiled and installed groff 1.06 on a Sun 4 without incident.
Then I typed `make realclean', and went to another machine.
configure ran fine, but then I got `Making all in libgroff' /
`make[2]: fopen: Makefile.dep: No such file or directory'

and Makefile couldn't figure out what to do next...

(This is GNU make 3.62 but I doubt it matters.)

   I compiled and installed groff 1.06 on a Sun 4 without incident.
   Then I typed `make realclean', and went to another machine.

In this situation it's better to use `make distclean': this deletes
all the files that were created by configuring and building groff, but
doesn't delete any files that are part of the distribution.

   configure ran fine, but then I got `Making all in libgroff' /
   `make[2]: fopen: Makefile.dep: No such file or directory'

   and Makefile couldn't figure out what to do next...

Thanks.  I've modified `make realclean' not to remove the Makefile.dep
files.
