Could you please show the error? configure should be handling this
and removing extensions that you don't have the dependencies for like
gnome-vfs.
Hm. This won't be as easy now :) I'll have to try to compile it again.
But as far as I can see in BLFS development the list of extensions is
also not specified :)
I didn't believe Alexander when he said no one reads the font
configuration section. Now after about the 5th email this month were
someone failed to configure their fonts, I believe him.
Please read this section.

No wonder. I've been there, seen that. But after looking thru first
few items I've decided that this is not interesting, since kbd mouse
and other things were already configured (I kept old configuration).
So I missed the fonts part :)
However, you should have the /usr/share/fonts directory already if you
followed the instructions in the BLFS SVN book. What version are you
using?
I was using the stable BLFS. Installing all of the packages from BLFS
is tedious work, so I usually just install those things that I want
and of course all of the dependencies. So I guess it would be nice to
have the part about creation of /usr/share/fonts as a dependency for
firefox :) BTW where is it done? I couldn't find it.
