Now we're getting to the point I've been asking about. In Ken's mozconfig file, it says "uncomment this if you built cairo". Well apparently, as you say Dan, *cairo will always have been built*, so why the comment as it stands? It is not an accurate comment. Now, due to some other comments in this thread it might be better to include the shipped cairo from the Moz tarball. But the comment in Ken's mozconfig file should be changed to more accurately describe why one should uncomment it. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.24] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 21:37:00 up 3 days, 7:36, 1 user, load average: 0.16, 0.03, 0.01 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
