== Building on OS X ==
 
The following instructions where written for Firefox 3.0.* builds. Try [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/User:Evmarbella Ezadkiel Villarico Marbella]'s page for more detailed instructions.
Build pre-requisites and instructions for OS X can also be found at the [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Mac_OS_X_Build_Prerequisites#Firefox_Quick_Start Mozilla Developer Center.]
 
Although those instructions are good, it may be necessary to take a few extra steps. For instance, the build may have trouble finding the glib dependency. If this happens, try adding this to your path:
export PATH=$PATH:/sw/bin;/sw/sbin
If you have built Firefox in your home directory and are trying to start it from the command line try these steps:
cd ~/mozilla/src/obj*/dist/MinefieldMinefieldDebug.app/Contents/MacOS
./firefox -Profilemanager -no-remote
