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.
Cheers,
Roman
