Hello,
I'm a newbie in the mozilla infrastructure and I am trying to use
XPCOM, JSEngine and XPConnect in standalone versions. Everything looks
very good, but when I was building those, I found out that XPConnect
depends on 'caps'(a package that seems to be quite heavyweight), and
later I found the confirmation in all.dot and
../mozilla/build/unix/modules.mk
xpconnect -> js;
xpconnect -> caps; // ???
xpconnect -> string;
xpconnect -> xpcom;
caps -> necko;
caps -> dom;
...
caps -> plugin;
And then I found the opened bug 183321 on the same problem.
Is there any particularly reason why the dependency exists, and
does anybody know a workaround or an easy way to get rid of it?
Thanks.
AC
