121546 - dist/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/ is not being created (missing overlays)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[John Morrison]

The linux builds on 'btek' and 'comet' are both missing the directory
dist/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/. That means that certain overlays are not
attached to the browser since this was not created. This is almost 
certainly why startup and window-open time dropped on comet and other 
tinderboxen. It may also be why the boxset and lhasa mailnews test are
orange. 

The most likely change, IMO, in the period where the times dropped, is rjc's 
checkin for RDF changes.

marking blocker, we need to fix this asap

cc'ing darin in case he can spot the bustage faster; rjc's checkin was heavy on 
nsIFile stuff.

i don't follow how this bug might be related to rjc's nsRDFXMLDataSource,
nsLocalStore, and nsIOServiceMac changes.  can anyone confirm that this bug is
fixed by locally backing out rjc's patch?

Comment 4

[John Morrison]

I'll test this in a moment (I'm getting the pageload regression tested right 
now).

Comment 5

[John Morrison]

Okay, backed out
cvs update -j1.122 -j1.121 mozilla/rdf/base/src/nsRDFXMLDataSource.cpp
cvs update -j1.43 -j1.42 mozilla/rdf/datasource/src/nsLocalStore.cpp
cvs update -j1.6 -j1.5 mozilla/netwerk/base/src/nsIOServiceMac.cpp

and dist/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/* was created on the next start of the browser
(for a build that was pulled about 9:15pm)

Okay, so let's back it out.

Comment 6

[Darin Fisher]

agreed.

[Chris McAfee]

jrgm's changes have been backed out.

Blame Canada!!

Comment 9

[John Morrison]

downgrading (and maybe rjc just wants to deal with this on bug 113894)

Comment 10

[R.K.Aa.]

is this why MailNews, AB, PSM, Chatzilla and most under "Tasks/Tools" are
missing in 2002-012321 on linux?

After a full install as root, all components can be started. But quitting and
starting moz as user, all mentioned components are gone. Only browser and
composer remains.

Comment 11

[John Morrison]

Yes, just chuck that build. It will have problems.

Closing this as the fixes for bug # 113894 were backed out.  Notice that a new
patch for # 113894 was just checked in, too.  ;)
