:-). There was a recent binutils upgrade. I wonder... Which compiler version did you use for your build? Regardless, I'm going to have to try "-O1" the next time around: I'm getting tired of having to stick pins in the "nsThreadUtils*" voodoo doll to get this thing built and working. As far as where to put the "-Wl,--no-relax" in the rules file, I couldn't figure that one out so I put it in the usual place except for one significant change: the debian build process for iceweasel has no dependency on autoconf, so adding "-Wl,--no-relax" to DSO_LDOPTS in "configure.in" is only half of it -- you have to make the corresponding changes to "configure" as well. The "no dependency on autoconf" thing is probably because the Mozilla code base still requires the obsolete 2.13 version. Ok... Rub it in :-). How long did the iceweasel build take on your shiny new toy? Might have to have you crank out an official "-O0" or "-O1" build of QT4 so I can release the hold on 25 binary packages. If you decide to do me that favor, you *may* have to modify the appropriate files under "mkspecs": I couldn't find an easy way to do what I wanted through either DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS or the rules file. --Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
