=Description=

I first started this prosess on windows early on because of [[User:David.humphrey |Daves]] suggestion to use the OS your most familiar with but then after seeing [http://www.ubuntu.com/ ubuntu's] flashy and compelling site I decided to disregard that and try something new on something new.

=Build Process=

#)*To start off I downloaded the newest ubuntu release (drapper) from their bittorrent server. #)*burned the ubuntu iso to a CD.#)*Transfered my files from the smaller of my two hard drives to my larger and set the smaller one to master.#)*Installed ubuntu using the CD I created.#)*Downloaded the firefox version i was currently using which was FireFox 1.5.6.#)*Extracted .tar#)*set .mozconfig to the static example on [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Configuring_Build_Options site].#)*Started build(first try) saw:

/opt/mozilla/widget/src/gtkxtbin/gtk2xtbin.c:906: error: ‘treeroot’ undeclared (first use in this function)

/opt/mozilla/widget/src/gtkxtbin/gtk2xtbin.c:909: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast

make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/firefox-build'

make: *** [build] Error 2

#)*fix: missing libidl-dev

sudo apt-get install libidl-dev

#)*Started build(second try) saw:

:XRemoteClient.cpp:(.text+0x4fd): undefined reference to `XGetWindowProperty'

:XRemoteClient.cpp:(.text+0x55d): undefined reference to `XChangeProperty'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/inveigle/Desktop/mozilla/ff-opt-static'

make: *** [build] Error 2

#)*fix: change mozconfig and remove (this is a problem only with FF ver 1.5.6 only)

ac_add_options --disable-debug
