Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Has anyone successfully built a new firefox on OI?
Hi, OK, I was trying esr31. Do you have access to the OI wiki so we can share a page ?

I talked to the devs at Firefox at the time and they said that SunStudio was the only compiler that had been used to get Firefox compiled ... I think the assumption in the code is that Solaris = SunStudio. I know that some people have had success with different patches and versions of gcc, but I gave up. Jon Hi, just came across this thread (don't follow as closely OI anymore). Firefox can build okay on SunOS with gcc, you do need to avoid 64-bit for fatval reasons, I believe still... wrt 48-bit addressing munging. (perhaps the new 64 bit dev version addresses that, haven't checked yet) I have been using esr24 since quite a long while now on pkgsrc, and have just gotten esr31 ff working recently (with shared xulrunner) and am currently upgrading tbird/enigmail. I'm pretty sure it's possible with OI/Hipster with appropriate tweeking. My pkgsrc patches haven't made it into the pack yet, but if anybody needs, give a holler. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJU+YrKAAoJECAB22fHtp27W1oH/12gbUhBzrm1lstJ7akTbzVe deIpQu7ZgAwt4Nx5ZWEdaKG1PraEghgQcgd7iuMOMNk3duuQDOUHtvTjyapRflzh OYcIqZOoD3aWCoQACxt8coM4fB48hjEeGMuq4+8fRUyFF8HONyNcUj+IuXufP8S1 ClLw5SKve7QsOOJSI5tj17baOzcvQNDb+0cI+C7EfA/MolsSfcsENBLaI3MAs1mN XWPJKJKgwshKcLqLDNjt2yJlOaTeSxphCrygKVr7CWj7TW9D/jifUQ2X2fsxp2BN DqFRpAawbt+NOBPpygyieN5TgCG9SEnhKcQEbQRnXT3zU5iOkHEfsbVaHZ38EJY= =X6HD -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss -- --- LARCHER Aurélien | KTH, School of Computer Science and Communication Work: +46 (0) 8 790 71 42 | Lindstedtsvägen 5, Plan 4, 100 44 Stockholm, SWEDEN --- ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
