I found that Yelp is very fussy about exactly which version of the mozilla libraries are installed. The Gecko rendering engine is being developed all the time. I don't normally install Firefox `system side' (I just run it in my home folder) so for me it's too much to install Mozilla just to get Yelp working. I find the simplest solution is to use Yelp-2.6.3. This uses libgtkhtml which is much smaller, easier to install and more reliable.
Just to follow up on this, yelp-2.12.1 seems to like firefox-1.5b2
wget http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.5b2/source/firefox-1.5b2-source.tar.bz2
yelp-2.12.1 works fine if I compile it against firefox-1.5b2 like this
tar xf firefox-1.5b2-source.tar.bz2 && cd mozilla && cat > mozconfig << "EOF" . $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig mk_add_options [EMAIL PROTECTED]@/firefox ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 ac_add_options --enable-xft ac_add_options --disable-freetype2 ac_add_options --with-java-bin-path=/usr/local/jre1.5.0/bin ac_add_options --with-pthreads ac_add_options --enable-optimize ac_add_options --disable-debug ac_add_options --disable-tests ac_add_options --enable-svg ac_add_options --prefix=/usr ac_add_options --mandir=/usr/share/man EOF mkdir firefox && make -f client.mk build && make -C firefox install && ldconfig && tar xf yelp-2.12.1.tar.bz2 && cd yelp-2.12.1 && ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc && make && make install && cd .. && rm -rf yelp-2.12.1 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
