make .dep doesn't exit successfully about website HOT 6 CLOSED

This one is non-trivial, I'm afraid. You need two make to reliably build the web pages.
We could commit the .dep file into the repo to avoid it. I personally dislike keeping generated content in git, but maybe I need to overcome this ...

This is what I'm doing so far within my GitHub Action pipline: https://github.com/itrich/website/actions/runs/1037602004

However, I'm still struggling to avoid the step make .dep to fail unsuccessfully. Have you any clues?

You could do a touch -d "2000-01-01" .dep && make .dep to avoid the exit code killing your pipeline.

Seems that the root cause was tmp/logos.html not being present before executing make .dep, which seems odd.
However, my GitHub Action finally runs flawlessly, see https://github.com/itrich/website/actions 👍

The processing is
source --- (md2html/genlogos.py/include.py) ---> tmp ----- (minify) ------> build.
The real problem is that we source the .dep file from the Makefile which itself knows how to generate .dep.
We probably need to split the Makefile into two Makefiles to make things clean.
The first Makefile generating all that's needed for .dep and then generating .dep. And a second that can then cleanly source the .dep file.
