'make dep' and 'make' commands do not work during asterisk installation?

i am installing asterisk server on my laptop with ubuntu16.04. during installation ‘make dep’ gives following error:

for dir in pjlib/build pjlib-util/build pjnath/build third_party/build pjmedia/build pjsip/build pjsip-apps/build ; do
if make -C $dir dep; then
true;
else
exit 1;
fi;
done
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/asterisk-13.16.0/pjproject/pjlib/build’
make -f /usr/src/asterisk-13.16.0/pjproject/build/rules.mak APP=PJLIB app=pjlib depend
make[2]: Entering directory ‘/usr/src/asterisk-13.16.0/pjproject/pjlib/build’
.pjlib-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.depend:1: *** missing separator. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/asterisk-13.16.0/pjproject/pjlib/build’

make[1]: *** [depend] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/asterisk-13.16.0/pjproject/pjlib/build’
Makefile:14: recipe for target ‘dep’ failed
make: *** [dep] Error 1

where makefile line 88 and line 14 are(respectively):

$(MAKE) -f $(RULES_MAK) APP=PJLIB app=pjlib depend

export PJLIB_SONAME := libpj.$(SHLIB_SUFFIX)

what could be the reason???

That will occur if you stop the build process right when it is doing the “make dep”. It results in a corrupted file. If you untar to a new directory does the result change?
