makefile name variable does not work

[k4lizen]

Here:

name=thesis

all: *.tex *.bib 
	rubber --pdf $(name).tex

clean:
	rubber --clean --pdf $(name).tex

This implies that one can change the name variable to get a differently named document, e.g. changing to name=report and then doing:

mv thesis.tex report.tex
mv thesis.bib report.bib
make

But this does not work because of

\addbibresource{thesis.bib}

in EPFLreport.sty
