A message "make[1]: [neat] Error 1 (ignored)" ?

[Aleksey Yakovlev]

Hello,

When I call make with "clean" target, it does everything right but outputs
many messages like:

make[1]: [neat] Error 1 (ignored)

What does this message mean?

(Make version 3.81 on RedHat Linux)

Thank you,
Aleksey

It means that the command(s) called by that target exited with an
error status (value 1). This would usually stop Make, but in this
case Make ignored that because the Makefile told it to ignore errors
in those commands.
