- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoBeing POSIX doesn't mean it's included by default; for example, you can start with the default installation of debian, install a compiler, and still not have make installed
- kerkeslager 3y agoThis technically isn't true, but I'll give you the point because I don't see `sudo apt install build-essentials` as a significant barrier to entry. But being able to print "make: ** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop." to stderr isn't particularly useful, and having to write a Makefile is a significant barrier.
