[tex-live] an issue with running dvipdfmx from a makefile

[Lars Madsen]

Where exactly is tmp? As I read your file is should be a subdirectory. Does it exist?

Would

chmod u+X script.sh && ./script.sh

Be better, then script is not attempted if chmod fails.

I picked up the word TMPDIR by sheer bad luck, if I
choose anything else like

# contents of makefile
ATMPDIR = tmp

test:
        chmod u+x script.sh; ./script.sh
# end of contents

there is no issue.

(here $(ATMPDIR) is never used, but it was needed in the big Makefile)

Obviously there is something important with TMPDIR and I did not have
the right to use it.

I am sorry about the fuss.

Best regards

Jean-Francois
