Description nagytam 2003-06-20 14:41:47 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Expected behaviour would be to allow to define another
default target as well, instead of 'all'.

Project Options | Build

You realy should consider providing this functionality. There are lots of reasons to use the custom makefiles instead of your automake manager. For instance: a project accessed by different people using different IDEs, historical grown projects, crossplatform projects with a windows side, that don't like to be forced to use unix type shells ...

You can now configure the default make target in the projet options -> build options dialog
