Description charles.gorand.dev 2017-02-01 09:00:59 UTC

My projects have the following file tree :

myproject/make/ : contains custom makefiles
myproject/src/  : contains source code

If I import this kind of project, "Custom Makefiles" in Project manager is not available.
It looks this option is only available if I select a folder where there is a makefile.

In kdevelop 4, this issue does not exists.

I workaround this issue by editing .kdev4 project file and change "Manager=KDevCustomMakeManager"

Step to reproduce :
- "Open/Import project"
- Select a project where makefile is not at the root of the project
- In Manager : "Custom Makefiles" is not available.

Thank you for reporting this bug in KDE software. As it has been a while since this issue was reported, can we please ask you to see if you can reproduce the issue with a recent software version?

If you can reproduce the issue, please change the status to "REPORTED" when replying. Thank you!

I can still reproduce the "issue" with version  5.8.220401 (22.04.1)
