After the bootstrap and dmake, I get stuck on libxmlsec. The

Hello,
and thanks for your tips Jeremy. Just got up... I was able to get
through nss/nspr dependency checking last night by first updating xmlsec
1.2.9, and then patching it to look for firefox's nss/nspr if it cannot
find mozilla (patch attached, beware it's a bloated beta as I applied my
identation to see things better). You've probably noticed that OOo guys
did several changes to libxmlsec (their patch is something ~.5MB IIRC),
but these were supposedly incorporated in xmlsec 1.2.8.
I downloaded 1.2.9 and dropped it in the libxmlsec/download folder after
using your patch, changed the makefile to point to xmlsec-1.2.9, and
touched libxmlsec/xmlsec1-1.2.9.patch because make complains about it
missing. Configure finds the nss/nspr stuff ok, but then bails soon
after with an error in keytrans.c:

The file contains simply "dummy". Replacing that with a real copy
allows the build to continue on. I'm assuming that part of the 1.2.6
patch is responsible for doing this, though I haven't looked through
it.. in any case, the build is continuing as I write. (Just using the
..-1.2.6.patch is worse after a /s/1.2.6/1.2.9/ applied.)
Accidentally built this one with C{,XX}FLAGS=-O3 -march=athlon-fx, but
surprisingly it's still going nuts.
Anyway, I got through that, but are now recompiling firefox with LDAP -
just copying the relevant include files :-] seems not enough, make bails
out at some point:
<snip output>
Looks like it's as simple as it not finding the ldap lib; thunderbird
has a build of it, so I assume if you put your thunderbird lib directory
in /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig it would be found, no? I don't have
ldap built for firefox but my build went right through it no problem.
I imagine the configure flags they have (--with-libxslt=no
--with-openssl=no --with-gnutls=no) stand there for a reason, namely
that OOo is not flexible enough to with with any backend other than
xmlsec. Sadly, as it would certainly save us a few problems.
You mean other than nss, I assume.. xmlsec requires, according to the
configure, one of openssl, gnutls, or nss (and they've hardcoded out two
of them.)
I'll let you know how my current build attempt works out, and I'll try
to write up a simple-as-possible build script. A couple patches will be
kinda annoying; I guess the sub-packages will just have to be patched
before they're copied into the source tree.
Regards,
Jeremy.
