okay- I'm trying to compile firefox on RHEL4. Currently compiling in my own account to try a few options out- trying to work out issues w/ firefox and other software. But at the moment- I can't get firefox to compile. last part of make log shows:
/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/config/nsinstall -R -m 755 lots ../../dist/bin gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/dbm/tests' gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/dbm' gmake[2]: Entering directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/jpeg' /home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/config/nsinstall -R -m 644 libmozjpeg.a../dist/lib gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/jpeg' gmake[2]: Entering directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/modules/zlib' gmake[3]: Entering directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/modules/zlib/src' rm -f libmozz.so c++ -I/usr/X11R6/include -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -Wall -Wconversion -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -pedantic -fshort-wchar -pthread -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O -fPIC -shared -Wl,-h -Wl,libmozz.so -o libmozz.so adler32.o compress.o crc32.o deflate.o gzio.o infback.o inffast.o inflate.o inftrees.o trees.o uncompr.o zutil.o -ldl -lm /usr/bin/ld: deflate.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against `memcpy@@GLIBC_2.2.5' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gmake[3]: *** [libmozz.so] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/modules/zlib/src' gmake[2]: *** [libs] Error 2 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla/modules/zlib' gmake[1]: *** [tier_1] Error 2 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/gedge/programs/firefox/mozilla' gmake: *** [default] Error 2 Kind of interesting- it complains about libmozz.so not being there- but a few lines earlier- it [rm -f libmozz.so]. Not sure why it's going through torching a file it needs seconds later in the compile. Any ideas?
