[Github-comments] [geany/geany] on OpenBSD 6.4, "don't know how to make geany.desktop" (#2049)

[Colomban Wendling]

Looks like the Intltool rule for generating Desktop files is not portable across Make implementations, it seems to be using GNU make `%` rules…

@andy5995 did you run autogen.sh, or did you use a tarball with a pre-generated configure?  If you didn't run autogen, maybe try it as I could hope that the BSD port of intltool might have a BSD-Make-compatible rule.  Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll have to use GNU Make.

It'd like to have a fix for this, but I'm not sure if it's worth maintaining our own version of the rule.  Maybe reporting it to upstream intltool if it still exists.
