Details

Trying to build from a read-only source directory that contains the file .mozconfig.out dies with the error: rm: cannot remove `.mozconfig.out': read-only filesystem But if I manually remove that file and then try the build again, the build succeeds after warning: /bin/sh: mozilla/.mozconfig.out: Read-only file system If that file isn't needed to build, then it seems like it shouldn't be necessary to remove it in order to build either.
Mass bug cleanup for Core:Build Config. If you feel this bug has been closed in error, please re-open with new details.
