Details

mkdir_deps generated dependencies will be considered an intermediate file and removed when used as a pre-requisite for a wildcard target. Add ".PRECIOUS: %/.mkdir.done" within config/makefiles/autotargets.mk to inhibit the behavior. Problem surfaced while compiling idl files { toolkit/components/alerts }. libalerts_s.a may also suffer from a similar problem: nsAlertsService.cpp /usr/bin/ccache c++ -o nsAlertsService.o [...] rm -f libalerts_s.a
