658273 - mozsqlite badly positioned in dependentlibs.list

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

NSS is linked against sqlite, so loading NSS libraries will require sqlite. Thus sqlite ought to appear first in dependentlibs.list, the xpcom standalone glue loading libraries in that order. It actually works without any change, but is suboptimal.

Doesn't nss have its own embedded copy of sqlite?

Fortunately, it uses firefox's

$ readelf -d libsoftokn3.so 

Dynamic section at offset 0x2d554 contains 30 entries:
  Tag        Type                         Name/Value
 0x00000001 (NEEDED)                     Shared library: [libmozsqlite3.so]
