That's the expected result.
Per your immediately previous post, it seems the issue was some incompatibility with a specific (non-GNU) make. Instead of commenting the offending portion of the makefile, we could (expanding on Stephen's suggestion) make it
ifneq ($(strip $(PACKAGES)),)
for p in $(PACKAGES);
do
gunzip -c $(srcdir)/$$p.tar.gz | (cd $(PKGDIR) ; tar xf -);
(cd $(PKGDIR)/$$p ; umask 02 ; PYTHONPATH=$(PYTHONLIBDIR)
$(PYTHON) $(SETUPCMD));
done
endif
however, the ifneq ... endif is a GNU make construct and that itself may not work in non-GNU makes.
