Running make does nothing

[absolutelynothinghere]

I tried running make and make sdl but there's no output, no errors, nothing.

[LIJI32]

Any more details? What version of make (make -v)? What operating system?

[absolutelynothinghere]

I'm using GNU make 4.4.1 on Linux

[LIJI32]

This is odd, the same version of GNU Make works on my VM. Can you try adding $(error Test) as the first line in the Makefile and see if it prints?

[absolutelynothinghere]

Yes it prints:

Makefile:1: *** Test. Stop.

@absolutelynothinghere does make V=1 make a difference?

[absolutelynothinghere]

does make V=1 make a difference?

No.

I seem to have forgotten to update this issue, but I basically wrote an entirely new Makefile after trying to debug the current one. The new Makefile is 60 lines long and POSIX compliant so it does not depend on GNU Make... Note that it only compiles the SameBoy executable, not the boot ROMs.
