Thank you for your suggestions. I installed all the dependencies, but on make I have run into a problem:
"Package xft not found in pkg-config search path." It suggests adding the path to "xft.pc" to PKG_CONFIG_PATH, but I can't find xft.pc anywhere on my system, even though I assume it should be in /usr/lib/pkgconfig. Did I miss a step in the configuration of X.org? On 4/2/07, anirudh vij <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
hi, i build firefox yesterday,and had to turn off --enable-canvas to build without problems. with the --enable-canvas option on i got some errors like x-headers not found(even though i passed in the --with-x-includes and --with-x-lib). and follow the blfs book so far as the .mozconfig file goes.I tried setting up the options directly in .configure to my woe . also remember to put in --with-qt-dir in .mozconfig(it'll work without it but the menu bar due to the default GTK is'nt that good looking). also build with system nss and nspr(binaries are smaller,and as the book says you need it for thunderbird anyway).uncomment the line in .mozconfig of the book. I had'nt built firefox-1.5,and my build went well after i did what i said earlier.Hope it works for you too.
