OK, I see.

So, it is $(obj)/mconf.o instead of $(obj)/mconf
that should depend on $(obj)/dochecklxdialog.


Could you change line 199

$(addprefix $(obj)/,$(lxdialog)): $(obj)/dochecklxdialog

to

$(addprefix $(obj)/, mconf.o $(lxdialog)): $(obj)/dochecklxdialog

and send v2, please?


This will make sure dochecklxdialog is run before compiling mconf.o
in parallel building.


Thanks!
