As for firefox2, its build system is a piece of shit. make just doesn't tell gcc where to find required headers or libraries and therefore either gcc cannot find #included file and dies or ld cannot resolve symbols and dies too; The compilation process consisted of trying to build -> patching Makefile.in -> rebuilding -> patching another Makefile.in -> .... -> removing --disable-... option -> ... 5 files total were patched FF2 don't succeded also to build with --disable-xpcom-obsolete option despite of the 'obsoleteness'. Also I had to add ac_cv_visibility=no to my .mozconfig in order to avoid 'relocation R_X86_64_PC32' gcc4 bug.
And congratulate me, at last I've done the work. Fix -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
