Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 1.0.3-2
Followup-For: Bug #309995

The following is the build procedure I have followed for enabling pango
support in firefox. If there are more firefox 1.0.x releases, please
consider enabling pango in them. The trunk has all the following patches
but pango is not enabled by default (atleast as of DeerPark Alpha 1), so
simply enabling pango should do for firefox 1.1.

1) I have applied the following pango pathes from the Fedora CVS:
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/firefox/
mozilla-1.7.3-pango-render.patch (-p1)
firefox-1.0-pango-selection.patch (-p1)
firefox-1.0-pango-space-width.patch (-p1)
firefox-1.0-pango-direction.patch (-p1)
firefox-1.0-pango-rounding.patch (-p1)

There is one more relevent (I guess) patch (I have not used this for
building)
firefox-1.0-pango-bidi-justify.patch

Enabling pango introduces the new dependency, pango >= 1.5.0

2) Another patch I have applied is a crash fix for installer (which is
irrelevent here) crashing.

3) Used the following options while configuring (we need run
autoconf2.13 on the source after patching):

--enable-default-toolkit=gtk2
--enable-xft
--enable-pango
