Hi Ken, Did you add --disable-autodeps to buildconfig?
For Gecko 1.8 or earlier 1.9, it would takes more than 15 hours to build Firefox/Thunderbird/Xulrunner without this option. We fixed this problem on 1.9 trunk. It takes me no more than 1hr on my machine with this trick. Regards, Ginn On Dec 18, 2007, at 12:42 AM, Ken Mays wrote: > Ok.
