             Bug #: 14121
           Summary: make writes .mo files in po directory
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: build
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: aj@suse.de
                CC: carlos@systemhalted.org
    Classification: Unclassified


Running make creates .mo files in the po directory.

We do not support building in the source dir, so let's not touch it by default.

Patched attached to write the .mo files to $(objpfx) and install from there as
well.

Exactly how do you reproduce this? My mo files are always in the object
directory?

My setup is as follow:

1. The source is on user "source".  Its home directory is on NFS and mounted
read-only as /home/source with the glibc source in g/glibc/glibc-2.18.
2. Group/other do not have write permissions for the source files.
3. The user is "build" which has its home directory on NFS mounted read only as
/home/build.  The object directory is
projects/g/glibc/glibc-2.18/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
4. The configure command is "configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64
--localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-add-ons=nptl".
5. No special "make" options are being used.

The build fails on "permission denied" in the "po" subdirectory as it is
attempting to write the ".mo" files to the source directory which it cannot do
as not only are the file/directory permissions are against it (the group/other
settings are read-only) but the source directory is on read-only NFS.  At this
moment in time, I do not think it is the NFS part which is an issue, it is the
read-only source directory which appears to highlight the problem.
