If building lightning with: make -C <topsrcdir>/objDir/calendar/lightning it only generates the updated files in <topsrcdir>/objDir/mozilla/dist/xpi-stage/lightning. The .xpi is not updated and also the files in <topsrcdir>/objDir/mozilla/dist/bin/extensions stay untouched. Formerly those were updated too. Doing a complete thunderbird rebuild works as expected.
As we've found, this takes care: make -C <topsrcdir>/objDir/calendar lightning tools I don't know if this is expeced, so I'm moving to Core to get some input.
Product: Calendar → Core

Typo in comment 1, the space should be a slash: make -C <topsrcdir>/objDir/calendar/lightning tools
Product: Core → Firefox Build System
Severity: normal → S3
