In the moz.build world if you try and build out of comm-central you get an error similar to: INPUT("StaticXULComponentsEnd/StaticXULComponentsEnd.o") ../../build/unix/gold/ld: error: cannot find -lldap60 ../../build/unix/gold/ld: error: cannot find -lprldap60 ../../build/unix/gold/ld: error: cannot find -lldif60 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make[5]: *** [libxul.so] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/gizmo/central/c-c/obj-sm/mozilla/toolkit/library' make[4]: *** [toolkit/library/target] Error 2 If you set: TOPLEVEL_BUILD=1; export TOPLEVEL_BUILD and run either: make -C obj-sm/ldap/sdks/c-sdk/ libs or: make -C obj-sm/ldap/ libs or: make -C obj-sm/ldap/sdks/c-sdk/ export then the relevant libraries get built If you try and add the following to m-c's Makefile.in: ifdef MOZ_LDAP_XPCOM toolkit/library/export: ../ldap/sdks/c-sdk/ldap/export endif You get the message: make recurse_export make[4]: Entering directory `/home/gizmo/central/c-c/obj-sm/mozilla' make[4]: *** No rule to make target `../ldap/sdks/c-sdk/export', needed by `toolkit/library/export'. Stop. I'm probably getting some obvious wrong.

I mentioned this on IRC, but: Try using ldap/ instead of ldap/sdks/c-sdk/ldap. The former was added to bridge the fact that the SDK's build system is screwy.

Using in m-c's Makefile.in: toolkit/library/target: ../ldap/target gives: make[4]: *** No rule to make target `../ldap/target', needed by `toolkit/library/target'. Stop. If I try update the ldap/Makefile.in to add target to export I get: make[5]: Entering directory `/home/gizmo/central/c-c/obj-sm/ldap' Makefile:17: *** recipe commences before first target. Stop. make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/gizmo/central/c-c/obj-sm/ldap' make[4]: *** [../ldap/export] Error 2 Adding to the libs line gives: make[4]: *** No rule to make target `../ldap/target', needed by `toolkit/library/target'. Stop.

There is also a patch for ldap's moz.build and Makefile.in to complete the fix.

I did try having target doing the same as export but the build system did not like the way recipe commenced.
