Hi there, Yes, after sometime of desperate search I have figured this out as well.
Since approximately 1 1/2 mozilla 1.0rc3-1 and it's related libriaries are compiling. So, I keep fingers crossed. Anyway thanks for help and patience to the three of you. It's amazing to see how quick and nearly always precise the help occurs. I hope one day I can turn the page around and help other newbies as well.
