"No rule to make target" when compiling glib - makefile

I am currently trying to build a software. However during its compilation, it stops with the following error messages:
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h', needed by `GLib-2.0.gir'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/gobject-introspection-1.30.0'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/gobject-introspection-1.30.0'
make: *** [all] Error 2
...
I read a thread about a similar error message here: gcc makefile error: "No rule to make target ..." however, I was not able to use it on my case. All I can say is that the dir where glibconfig.h is found, shows here:
$(GLIB_LIBDIR)/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h
I guess I have to edit the Makefile and add something, but what? Not sure what .gir files are

Cygwin,lib: command not found while building Unix based library

I am trying to install the tblis library on my Cygwin installation and I am encountering in the following error:
$ make
make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/indiano/Test/tblis'
Making all in src/external/tci

I donĀ“t have a lot of experience with building big projects and even less in cross-compiling, can somebody land an hand or at least point me in some direction?
My suspect is that something is missing in the base installation of Cygwin, but I can not identify which package should be.
Also seams that there is nothing to be found on the internet.

how to install gdb 9.1 on debian from source code

I like to compile and use gdb 9.1. the source is here https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/
Plus when I type make in config directory make says make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. because there is not make file. on root folder there are Makefile.in and Makefile.tpl and Makefile.def. what are these files. and how can I install gdb 9 from source code.
Update
After the comment changes I made in command by G.M I am getting this error I think almost at the end of compiling process

WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system.
You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or
any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.
You might want to install the Texinfo package:

The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of
using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might
want to install GNU make:

trying to building on OSX but got "No rule to make target antlr4_static" error

trying to build on OSX, got the following antlr error. Need to install antlr-runtime?
[ 43%] Built target antlr4_runtime
[ 43%] Built target csv_infer
[ 45%] Performing build_static step for 'antlr4_runtime'
make[4]: *** No rule to make target `antlr4_static'. Stop.

make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/antlr4_runtime-build_static.dir/all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [dev] Error 2
This has now been fixed.
CMake 3.14 changed where the ExternalProject module builds the source. It was unable to find ANTLR's own CMake files, necessitating a change to the WORKING_DIRECTORY.

Trying to compile a script from github but getting errors

I'm trying to install https://github.com/xxorde/librekinect
but I'm running into the following issue:
$ make
make pc
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/pi/librekinect-master'
make -C /lib/modules/3.18.5+/build M= modules
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/pi/librekinect-master'
make[2]: *** /lib/modules/3.18.5+/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/pi/librekinect-master'

make[1]: *** [pc] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/pi/librekinect-master'
Makefile:24: recipe for target 'default' failed
make: *** [default] Error 2
I tried searching for *** /lib/modules/3.18.5+/build: No such file or directory. Stop. on google but that produced nothing helpful.
What am I missing?
Since you are working on raspberry pi, you should follow the recipe here. Mostly, I think you miss parts of the toolchain (at least build-essentials and likely the headers). I would follow that example step by step.

mips gcc toolchain

I was trying to set up a toolchain for Mips on Ubuntu, as per the instructions here. However, when I do make CFLAGS="-Os -w", I get an error as follows :-
...
...
fi
echo timestamp > stmp-fixproto
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/local/bin/mips-elf-as', needed by `stamp-as'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/mainuser/mips/gcc-obj/gcc'
make[1]: *** [all-gcc] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mainuser/mips/gcc-obj'
make: *** [all] Error 2
How could I go about correcting this error?
Which occurrence of make CFLAGS="-Os -w" is it failing on? From the error message, it looks like mips-elf-as has not been successfully built by the first stage of the process.
