Wrong path of last included makefile

[ezmora]

My makefile calls some other Android.mk that builds a static library,
and then tries to include a prebuilt static library:

MY_LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_PATH := $(MY_LOCAL_PATH)
include $(LOCAL_PATH)/../../../../../some/directory/Android.mk

LOCAL_PATH := $(MY_LOCAL_PATH)
LOCAL_MODULE := aaa-prebuilt
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $(MY_LOCAL_PATH)/../libs/libMyStaticLibrary.a
include $(PREBUILT_STATIC_LIBRARY)

I keep receiving "LOCAL_SRC_FILES points to a missing file"
When I print the value of either $(MY_LOCAL_PATH) or $(LOCAL_PATH), I
keep receiving the path of my last included makefile (../../../../../
some/directory)

According to the NDK documentation:
"IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the way GNU Make works, this really returns
the path of the *last* *included* *Makefile* during the parsing of
build scripts."

and it is therefore recommended to use a local variable MY_LOCAL_PATH
instead of LOCAL_PATH.
That's exactly what I do and I keep getting error messages.
Any ideas?

does /../../../../../some/directory/Android.mk also define MY_LOCAL_PATH?

It looks like you're not using include $(CLEAR_VARS) before your aaa-prebuilt definition.

Maybe this is the root of the problem (and the build system is confused for other reasons)
