Pull from CVS? > Almost certainly not. Thankfully, I don't have CVS installed on any desktops. As you said a little earlier, the real difference seems to be in the install. As I noted on -support, people intending to build epiphany on top of firefox will be short of headers and .pc files (and the .pc point to /usr/local) if they use the "tar it up and then untar it" method. There's also a question of where the beast should be installed - the book's (old) way used to use /usr/lib/firefox-v.v.v whereas the tar method just installs in /usr/lib/firefox.
On balance, if somebody can find a way of fixing 'make install' so that the end result doesn't get hung up about profiles, that would be a good thing.
