86958 - modifications to link crypto into a meta-component for the static build

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, defect)

Description

[Chris Waterson]

The attached modifications make it so that we can build all the crypto 
libraries (pki, ssl) into a single ``meta component'' for the static build.

Attachment: use new build-fu to create components

Hey ddrinan, could you take a look at (and ideally land) these changes? We've 
updated the component fu so that we can kludge components together into ``meta 
components''. They've been r='d, sr='d, and a='d (see bug 46775 for the Unix 
changes, and bug 81371 for Win32), and do not otherwise affect the ``normal'' 
build.

Thanks!

r=ddrinan.

Is there a sequencing issue with this patch i.e. do *all* the patches 
(86958,46775,81371) have to land at the same time? It seems to me if I landed 
this now, it would probably break PSM builds.

Those changes are already in; they went in as part of the carpool, today. So,
although there is an ordering problem, it's been taken care of. :-)
