Close, but not correct - the explanation is in the paragraph above the instructions to create the mozconfig : "The commented line for --with-libxul-sdk has an escaped dollar sign - if you have chosed to paste the entries into a mozconfig file in your editor, you do not need the escape, it is only necessary when invoking a subshell in a HERE document." Oh! I can't write Inglis! 'if you have chosed' : what can I say? ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
