Just to jump in, I am trying to build firefox.
=TweaksProblems=
When I installed cygwin, I left the line endings as UNIX type (recommended) - and when I tried to check out I got the following error:
===The error(1) ===
C:\proj\mozilla>make -f client.mk checkout
cvs checkout: warning: failed to open /home/Lukas/.cvspass for reading: No such
.
===The solution(1) ===
in C:\proj\mozilla
dos2unix .mozconfig
This cleared everything up, and then I was able to begin downloading the source code.
===The error (2) ===
SO, after an hour and a half of compiling, I get this at the end:
<code>nsFieldSetFrame.cpp
nsFileControlFrame.cpp
Building deps for /cygdrive/c/proj/mozilla/layout/forms/nsFileControlFrame.cpp
make[5]: *** [nsFileControlFrame.obj] Error 5

===The solution (2) ===
