Paul is just saying that you have to create rules for all the files that
your build deals with.  Dependency relationships are defined, as you
may already know, with the following syntax.

target: prerequisite

In the vernacular of the build world, 'prerequisite' is a dependency of
'target'.  There is a dependency relationship between 'target' and
'prerequisite'.
