303681 - make 3.81beta3 fails in extensions/p3p

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Peter Weilbacher]

The new beta of GNU make fails in extensions/p3p with this error:

d:/Tools/PerlPython/perl.exe -Im:/MComp/mozilla/config
m:/MComp/mozilla/config/preprocessor.pl
-DNAMESPACE=http://www.w3.org/2000/10/18/P3Pv1 \
        -DHAS_TMPL_RETENTION\
        m:/MComp/mozilla/extensions/p3p/resources/content/p3p.xsl.in > p3p200010.xsl
m:/MComp/mozilla/config/preprocessor.pl: invalid argument to -D:
HAS_TMPL_RETENTIONm:/MComp/mozilla/extensions/p3p/resources/content/p3p.xsl.in
make.exe[1]: *** [p3p200010.xsl] Error 255
make.exe[1]: *** Deleting file `p3p200010.xsl'
make.exe[1]: Leaving directory `m:/MComp/obj/extensions/p3p'

That is actually understandable as the Makefile only contains a tab but not a
space between HAS_TMPL_RETENTION and the filename.

Attachment: Fix the problem (add spaces)

This fixes the problem by inserting an extra space in front of each backslash
(the way it should be anyway).
