This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Projects which don't provide a `configure` script, but a `Makefile` only, cause `make` to be run in `$HOME`.
Works well if `bin/netbeans` of the binary distributions is started in the directory where the `Makefile` is located.
Setting `Working directory` in the `Make` section of the project properties doesn't have any effect.
New project wizard was reworked in Netbeans 8.1. Please conform that problem is not reproducible in development build.
