I've never heard of this error on x86, but there used to be problems using GCC visibility on various arches. You can try to disable it by adding the setting ac_cv_visibility_pragma=no to your .mozconfig. > I have resolved the problem by revising the .mozconfig file.

If you're patient enough to wait out of firefox build, I'd suggest adding my suggestion to the original .mozconfig and trying again. You're definitely missing out on some things with no gtk support. Oh, yeah, about freetype. You definitely would want to disable it. Mozilla had some super-broken stuff in there. But, if you get the gtk2 toolkit build going it will disable freetype by default. It can't hurt to --disable-freetype2, though. > Some information relative to selecting these options can be obtained from the > following site: > http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Configuring_Build_Options#Using_a_.mozconfig_Configuration_File That's a good one. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
