2013-10-14 Thread Nico Kadel-Garcia
I took a look a thte Fedora SRPM's, which unfortunately ended about 3 years
ago with a very out of date release. The current release requires Python
2.7, which is begging for pain to install on an SL 6 system.

SL 7 should be much more compatible with current releases.

I can provide detailed instructions or just a copy of both the mozconfig
file used for the build and the typescript of the building.

I have had to add a few RPMs to SL6x from other distributions.  There
was a query on a different thread (same general topic, but a different
subject line) as to why I used a 5x CentOS RPM for one of the
dependencies of the build.  I could not find a 6x EL version.  The
application was not a systems application that would overwrite/override
other files, and seemed to be constrained with a unique identifier.  My
experience is that many EL 5 and even EL 4 applications still "work"
with EL 6, as did this.  Presumably, if the EL 6 version is available,
that too would work.

Do you have a place to download the RPM?



I have the full directory as well as the built files -- but the source 
code did not come with any obvious configuration/script software to 
build a RPM.  Moreover, I do not have the personnel resources to support 
this application for future updates, although I expect that the steps 
that I did will work for such updates.


I have not built this for the IA-32 platform, only X86-64.  Is anyone 
with an IA-32 SL6x development system willing to repeat the exercise to 
produce an IA-32 platform version?


Can you supply the necessary information to build a RPM as well as 
properly specify dependencies?

I have had to add a few RPMs to SL6x from other distributions.  There
