all: ${A} ${B} ${C} ${D} ${E}

If I run makefile with -j -l 2.0 it will run hundreds of jobs at the
same time. (submitting to LSF)

How can I insure that ${A} is run before any others and ${E} is run
last without having
${B} may be 10000 items ${A} needs to run only once and not have a
dependency to all 10k items.

I thought about doing an "if" in the makefile

${B} : ${A}
${B} : ${G}

${G}:
do something

I'm using gnu make on a linux box.

Wouldn't this work?

all: ${E}
commands_to_make_E

${E}: ${D}

${D}: ${C}

${C}: ${B}

${B}: ${A}
