Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Build Config, defect)

since 1.2a I cannot compile mozilla any longer.
The problem is while "make":

last lines of compilation:

it's possible that I'm too stupid but I can't imagine what went wrong :-(
Please ask what you like to know of the build-process.

Reproducible: Always

^This bug is possible invalid because this is a bug databse and no support database.

What build options are you using?  The NSPR files are supposed to be installed
into dist/sdk using the real_install command.  For some reason, you're
installing them into their system directories instead.

../../../config/./nsinstall -t -m 0644 ./plbase64.h ./plerror.h ./plgetopt.h ./p
lresolv.h ./plstr.h /usr/src/packages/BUILD/mozilla/dist/sdk/nspr/include/

vs

../../../config/./nsinstall -t -m 0755 ./libplc4.a ./libplc4.so /opt/mozilla/lib

[Wolfgang Rosenauer [:wolfiR]]

hmm, I see. I use the following configure statement.
./configure --enable-configure --disable-tests \
            --disable-debug --enable-optimize="$CFLAGS" \
            --disable-dtd-debug --disable-logging \
            --enable-extensions --disable-short-wchar \
            --enable-crypto --enable-mathml \
            --enable-xinerama --enable-reorder --enable-strip \
            --with-default-mozilla-five-home=/opt/mozilla \
            --sysconfdir=/etc \
            --prefix=/opt/mozilla \
            --libdir=/opt/mozilla/lib \
            --includedir=/opt/mozilla/include \
            --enable-ldap-experimental \
            --with-system-jpeg \
            --with-system-png \
            --with-system-mng \
            --with-system-zlib

this was OK for 1.0.x and 1.1.

Comment 4

[Wolfgang Rosenauer [:wolfiR]]

OK, this is caused by --libdir=/opt/mozilla/lib.
The build is running without this parameter. But this is not a wanted behaviour,
is it?

Comment 5

[hacker formerly known as [e-mail]]

No, it's not; though I don't understand why you'd need to reset both libdir &
includedir when just resetting --prefix should do.

Comment 6

[Wolfgang Rosenauer [:wolfiR]]

includedir isn't really needed for me I think, but I have to use
libdir to install to /opt/mozilla/lib on 32bit platforms and /opt/mozilla/lib64 
on 64bit platforms. This is catched by an rpm-macro at this time
(--libdir=%{prefix}/%{_lib})
