makefile.base

# makefile.base is included by any makefile directly invoked by make
# We set a couple common variables used in build
# However, the main purpose is to check if config.py has been run
# If not, it throws an error to user that they should do that
# If it has, it includes the makefile.config and we go on our merry way
# And hey, who doesn't need another level of indirection from time to time?

# Some basic setup for our build
