Noobie's having problems with building Firebird

Kronos · Post by **Kronos** » June 10th, 2003, 9:50 pm

I"ve built Firebird but when I run the last command, "make MOZ_PKG_APPNAME=phoenix MOZILLA_BIN="\$(DIST)/bin/MozillaFirebird-bin"", nothing seems to happen. No tar file is created, and all that's in the dist directory are symlinks (which work).

I searched the forums and found a few variations on the command but none of them seemed to work. Am I supposed to replace \$(DIST) with something, or does it stay like that?

Thanks for your help.

you have changed to xpinstall/packager/ when you do this ?

I run with

Code: Select all


#!/bin/sh

#...
#cvs checkout and build
#...

cd xpinstall/packager && make MOZ_PKG_FORMAT="BZ2" MOZ_PKG_APPNAME="phoenix-`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M`" \
PKG_BASENAME="phoenix-i686-pc-linux-gnu.gtk1.`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M`" \
MOZILLA_BIN="\$(DIST)/bin/MozillaFirebird-bin"

DOH! I think I cd'd to xpinstall but not packager. I'll check when I get home, thanks for the reply.
