Mozilla source in Moblin not building in Debian

[Kulkarni, MilindX]

Greetings,

I am building moblin, all C/C++ packages. I got this problem while doing
Mozilla build, while all the other packages build okay.

I am writing a mail because I suppose this was a good place regarding
problems about building Mozilla.

It would be great if I find any pointers / directions to resolve this
issue, which I am not getting any.

 

I am using sudo pdebuild -use-build-internal to build mozilla in Feist
Fawn (Ubuntu 7.04), but it seems the debian/control file is not having
enough information about the package Dependencies & others. This is the
file needed as the pdebuild resolves dependencies, and updates the build
environment automatically, so that mozilla gets built properly.

 

So, it seems I am getting this error in the end:--

 

cd nsprpub ; /usr/bin/make realclean

make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/persist/moblin/mozilla-19990716.M8/nsprpub'

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `realclean'.  Stop.

make[1]: Leaving directory

Why is this file not updated properly, if it is so..

Can you suggest me how to start updating this file, as I am not a much
expert in this debian builds.

 

Hoping to get some advice on how to get started. Kindly advice on this.

 

Regards
