I want to know if it is possible to build projects from differents
locations.

Indeed, I try to build a project from its directory, it works.
I try to build it from another directory through dependency, and there
is an error. The error tell that the compiler cannot find the cpp file.
Indeed, he try to use the already generated rsp and in this file, the
path to cpp is not the same than the current one... (because it is relative)

Is it possible to tell BB to rebuild rsp each time ? or rsp should be
not with relative path...

This fact join my idea to not use anymore <dependency>, but for the
moment my build system works, at least when things are building every
time from the same directory (in general top level), and it rebuilds
things even if they don't need (see thread "inopportune rebuild").

I do not know if I am the only one that use BB this way, but I hope that
somone could investigate on my issues.

Thx again
