Hi all
I noticed that I do get quite different build sizes for thunderbird than
other maintainers, so I thought I will give a few infos about how I
build thunderbird. Maybe this helps to find out what's going on here.
du -hs /lgl-bld/thunderbird-68.7.0/
reports
4.2G /lgl-bld/thunderbird-68.7.0/
So, as I'm doing this with all other packages and never get a
significant difference to what's in the book with other packages, I'm
pretty sure that my counting isn't the problem.
In my mozconfig, I think I'm doing pretty standard stuff, too. These are
my active ac_add_options:
ac_add_options --enable-startup-notification
ac_add_options --disable-pulseaudio
ac_add_options --enable-calendar
ac_add_options --enable-system-sqlite
ac_add_options --with-system-libevent
ac_add_options --with-system-nspr
ac_add_options --with-system-nss
ac_add_options --with-system-icu
ac_add_options --prefix=/opt/thunderbird
ac_add_options --enable-application=comm/mail
ac_add_options --disable-crashreporter
ac_add_options --disable-updater
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-debug-symbols
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --enable-optimize=-O2
ac_add_options --enable-strip
ac_add_options --enable-install-strip
ac_add_options --enable-official-branding
ac_add_options --enable-system-ffi
ac_add_options --enable-system-pixman
ac_add_options --with-system-bz2
ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg
ac_add_options --with-system-png
ac_add_options --with-system-zlib
So, what's left maybe is my toolchain, which might be a bit outdated:
Name : rustc
Version : 1.42.0-1
Name : gcc
Version : 7.3.0-1
Name : clang
Version : 5.0.1-1
I suppose I'm building with gcc and not clang, might that make such a
huge difference in buildsize?
Bye
Tim
