A lot of people seem to have either this problem, or some other problems with the dummy_file...

We had the same thing you had, so in the Makefile we simply disabled the part that is looking for a dummy_file

When it is otherwise complaining about a dummy_file, we open that dummy file with notepad and save it. Yes it is empty, it is just to change the "Modified Time"

This bug is really annoying, Altera should fix it asap...
