I realize that this problem is already corrected, and I'm glad that you
got past the error, but it the cause of the problem was never
determined. That might have been a nice bit of info for you to have
while experimenting with unionfs (though you weren't using it at the
time). I don't see where the object file (nsTreeStyleCache.o) is
created because it was already in place at the time that the build log
was created (not the first time you ran make). The original creation of
that file *might* have told more about the problem. I've gotten to the
point now that I record everything, in fact, it is a part of my package
management tool (which I still need to finish).
For future (and this is not directed specifically at you Esben, it is
just that this particular problem makes a good supporting argument), I
would like to suggest that everyone who builds from source log *every*
package build and installation. In this case, it may or may not have
helped, but it would have been interesting to have seen it, well for me
it would have been interesting. :-) I use something similar to the
following in my package manager (notice the sub-shell to capture the
output of the time command too):
(
time {
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make &&
sudo make install
}
) 2>&1 | tee -a ../buildlogs/packagename-version.buildlog
