Subject: nspr-4.7.1: race condition causing occasional build failure
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2010 10:06:26 +1030	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CBE2B7A.4040601@gmail.com> (raw)

The failure looks like this:

make[3]: Entering directory `/mnt/oe/tmp/work/mipsel-oe-linux/nspr-4.7.1-r1/nspr-4.7.1/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/include/md'
../../../config/./nsinstall -R -m 444 ./_aix32.cfg ./_aix64.cfg ./_beos.cfg ./_bsdi.cfg ./_darwin.cfg ./_dgux.cfg ./_freebsd.cfg ./_hpux32.cfg ./_hpux64.cfg ./_irix32.cfg ./_irix64.cfg ./_linux.cfg ./_ncr.cfg ./_nec.cfg ./_netbsd.cfg ./_nextstep.cfg ./_nto.cfg ./_openbsd.cfg ./_openvms.cfg ./_os2.cfg ./_osf1.cfg ./_qnx.cfg ./_reliantunix.cfg ./_riscos.cfg ./_scoos.cfg ./_solaris.cfg ./_sony.cfg ./_sunos4.cfg ./_unixware.cfg ./_unixware7.cfg ./_win16.cfg ./_win95.cfg ./_winnt.cfg ../../../dist/include/nspr/md
../../../config/./nsinstall: ../../../config/./nsinstall: cannot execute binary file
make[3]: *** [export] Error 126


do_compile_prepend() contains the following line:
cp ${STAGING_BINDIR_NATIVE}/${P}/nsinstall config/nsinstall
Which copies the nsinstall program built by nspr-tools-native. However,
in the case of the failure, nspr chooses to build a version of nsinstall
for the target.

I'm having trouble reproducing this, but I can see that I am not alone
in experiencing this bug.

Any help with determining what causes this race would be appreciated. It has
the follow on effect of causing various other packages to fail in difficult
to diagnose ways.
