I’m working on a hobby project of mine which requires Gnu Make 4.4. I am now trying to setup the project’s Travis pipeline on github. Travis, understandably, only offers LTS Ubuntu images and sadly Gnu Make 4.4 is not available on those images.
Is there any way, compiling from the sources aside, to install the said version on an Ubuntu image? Something like a PPA?
That’s usually true except that this project is about the Makefile itself 😁 I’m working on a set of useful recipes, targets and variables which I’ve always missed from Make’s out-of-the-box offering - something like a stdlib/utils for Make.
And yes, as you may have already guessed, I’ve had to deal w/ Makefiles relatively frequently 😀
