I found my solution on a [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=92495&start=1320&sid=ad7fac8c3bc80a7373a0bf8957a15971 forum]. Basically I just added "ac_add_options --disable-installer" to my .mozconfig file.
The next problem I encountered was a little trickier. The error code was: <pre>../coreconf/rules.mk:365: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:406: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:407: warning: overriding commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:366: warning: ignoring old commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:437: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:438: warning: overriding commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:407: warning: ignoring old commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:445: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:446: warning: overriding commands for target `c../coreconf/rules.mk:438: warning: ignoring old commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:449: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:450: warning: overriding commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:446: warning: ignoring old commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:464: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:465: warning: overriding commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:450: warning: ignoring old commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:468: target `c' doesn't match the target pattern../coreconf/rules.mk:469: warning: overriding commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:465: warning: ignoring old commands for target `c'../coreconf/rules.mk:966: *** multiple target patterns. Stop.</pre> My typical solution to any problems is "consulting" my old friend [http://www.google.com Google]. It seemed like quite a few people encountered the same problem. I found out from a forum that the problem was that I didn't have the right version of Make. I had Make 3.81 which should have been Make 3.80. I pulled up the [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Windows_Build_Prerequisites#GNU_Tools_for_Microsoft_Windows_.28Cygwin.29 GNU Tools for Microsoft Windows (Cygwin)] installation guide again, and realized that I have missed out the part where it mentioned <b>make 3.80 (not 3.81!) -- dependency analyzer for software builds (Devel category)</b> as one of the required packages. However, when I reinstalled Cygwin again, it didn't give me an option to choose Make 3.80!! (I think this is a serious issue and should be outlined in the Windows Build Documentation) I tried various solutions but my build still failed. After several unsuccessful attempts, I consulted [[User:Sancus|Andrei Hajdukewycz]] for a solution, and the miracle happened, Firefox was then successfully built!! <b>Solution to "target `c' doesn't match the target pattern" error</b>Install Cywgin from [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Windows_Build_Prerequisites#GNU_Tools_for_Microsoft_Windows_.28Cygwin.29 here]Download [http://cygwin.paracoda.com/release/make/make-3.80-1.tar.bz2 Make 3.80]Extract it and install itAs it is a binary package, you could just grab the Make executable file (make.exe) and drop it in Cywgin -> bin (this will overwrite the existing Make executable)Double check if you have the right Make package by typing this command:<pre>$ make -vGNU Make 3.80</pre>
