--- Comment #7 from Davin McCall <[email protected]> --- bfoman: Well, the bug is primarily about "make install" failure. The cause of that was a too-old version of tar, as per comments above, which I think should either be identified or at least cause a build error during "make" processing. I can check whether this has been fixed and will do so soon; if so I'll close the bug, although no-ones even confirmed it yet, so there's little evidence at this point that anything's been done about it. As for the other things you mention: - "Native Build" page doesn't say how to build from release tarballs, and it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere which tarballs I need - distro-configs are potentially useful but also not mentioned in build documentation - "Configure options" page doesn't say what the configure options actually affect. For instance, --disable-mozilla LibO usually includes a strangely hacked up mozilla binary for your platform, to build without this version, use this option. What functionality is affected by this, though? (yes, partially answered by Joel above, but not documented). Also, the text is ambiguous - "to build without this version, use this option" - does that mean if I use this option, it will build with some other version? - a mailing list is not documentation! - sure, next time I build I may try to update the wiki to include information on building from tarballs and point to the distro configs. Thanks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
