88926 2012-06-12 14:58:34 -0700 [Gtk] Deprecated Automake 'mkdir_p' causes build failures 2013-09-09 04:44:08 -0700 1 1 1 Unclassified WebKit WebKitGTK 528+ (Nightly build) Unspecified Unspecified RESOLVED DUPLICATE 88790 P2 Normal --- 0 decimalman webkit-unassigned a.renevier berto oldest_to_newest 647376 0 decimalman 2012-06-12 14:58:34 -0700 As reported at https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420591. The Gentoo ebuild runs eautoreconf (emulates autoreconf) on the sources before building. With newer versions of automake run on the sources, 'mkdir_p' isn't set, but it's still used in the makefile. The result is the following error: make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-libs/webkit-gtk-1.8.1-r301/work/webkit-1.8.1' touch stamp-po ./.deps/DerivedSources make[1]: ./.deps/DerivedSources: Command not found make[1]: *** [all-local] Error 127 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-libs/webkit-gtk-1.8.1-r301/work/webkit-1.8.1' make: *** [all] Error 2 I submitted a patch to the Gentoo bug tracker changing all instances of 'mkdir_p' to 'MKDIR_P' in various GNUmakefile.am files, fixing the issue. 647401 1 a.renevier 2012-06-12 15:18:52 -0700 It should have been fixed with changeset 120012 http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/120012 Would you mind trying with latest WebKit trunk ? 647447 2 decimalman 2012-06-12 16:12:14 -0700 It's fixed in trunk. I'm not sure why the previous report didn't show up when I was searching. Thanks. 926650 3 berto 2013-09-09 04:44:08 -0700 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 88790 ***
