Good afternoon, I seem to have gotten the chroot to function. Not know much about them and searching for answers I still have the following questions (and if you point me in the right direction I'll read, search, try, and then ask more questions):
1) the installation we've done sets up a minimun "system" and things like network config, wget, and other programs need to be copied into the system to make them work? 2) I downloaded the source for mozjs and attempted to build starting with a ./configure and found python was missing. Is it better to install the networking and such to do an apt-get install or should I manually install python? 3) The version of mozjs I downloaded was 31.2.0-rc0. Should I start with the this one or should I try 1.8.5-1.0.0+dfsg-4.3? I appreciate the help in understanding how this should be done. Please let me know if I'm going about it wrong? I hope my questions don't bother the guru's. Reading and following maintainers guide as well.
