Correction: Actually make in tail_build subdirectory was not suceeded. Its exit code was 2. (I was confused because I was using tee command to pipe the output, accordingly subsequent $? evaluated to 0) No error message was produced anyway. The following are several last lines of 'make -r' in tail_build subdirectory: <blockquote style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote">[ build LNK ] Library/libplacewarelo.so R=/data/work/niboshi && S=$R/libo && O=$S/solver/unxlngi6 && W=$S/workdir/unxlngi6 && mkdir -p $W/LinkTarget/Library/ && g++ -shared -Wl,-z,noexecstack '-Wl,-rpath,$ORIGIN:$ORIGIN/../ure-link/lib' '-Wl,-rpath-link,$O/lib' -Wl,-z,defs -Wl,-rpath-link,/lib:/usr/lib -Wl,-z,combreloc -L$S/solenv/unxlngi6/lib -L$O/lib -L$S/solenv/unxlngi6/lib -L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--dynamic-list-cpp-new -Wl,--dynamic-list-cpp-typeinfo -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions $W/CxxObject/filter/source/placeware/Base64Codec.o $W/CxxObject/filter/source/placeware/exporter.o $W/CxxObject/filter/source/placeware/filter.o $W/CxxObject/filter/source/placeware/tempfile.o $W/CxxObject/filter/source/placeware/uno.o $W/CxxObject/filter/source/placeware/zip.o -Wl,--start-group -Wl,--end-group -luno_cppuhelpergcc3 -luno_cppu -luno_sal -o $W/LinkTarget/Library/libplacewarelo.so TEMPFILE=/tmp/gbuild.MwTdYU && mv ${TEMPFILE} /data/work/niboshi/libo/workdir/unxlngi6/LinkTarget/Library/libplacewarelo.so.objectlist R=/data/work/niboshi && S=$R/libo && O=$S/solver/unxlngi6 && W=$S/workdir/unxlngi6 && mkdir -p $O/lib/ && /bin/cp --force --preserve=timestamps $W/LinkTarget/Library/libplacewarelo.so $O/lib/libplacewarelo.so [ build CMP ] filter/source/svg/svgfilter R=/data/work/niboshi && S=$R/libo && O=$S/solver/unxlngi6 && W=$S/workdir/unxlngi6 && mkdir -p $W/ComponentTarget/filter/source/svg/ && LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$O/lib" $O/bin/xsltproc --nonet --stringparam uri 'vnd.sun.star.expand:$LO_LIB_DIR/libsvgfilterlo.so' -o $W/ComponentTarget/filter/source/svg/svgfilter.component $S/solenv/bin/createcomponent.xslt $S/filter/source/svg/svgfilter.component mkdir -p /data/work/niboshi/libo/solver/unxlngi6/xml/component/filter/source/svg/ && /bin/cp --force --preserve=timestamps /data/work/niboshi/libo/workdir/unxlngi6/ComponentTarget/filter/source/svg/svgfilter.component /data/work/niboshi/libo/solver/unxlngi6/xml/component/filter/source/svg/svgfilter.component </blockquote> Thanks -- Daisuke Nishino
