Re: moz module gbuildification?
David, I'm in the process of converting just the binary version of moz to gbuild right now.

Re: moz module gbuildification?
Hi, Did you try it on Windows with --enable-win-mozab-driver? For me the build failed, moz headers were not in place when connectivity module needed them.

Having said that I suggest to drop native compilation mode (i. e. all sources, patches, etc.) and only partially gbuildify moz module: prebuilt seamonkey mode, to be able to include binaries in release build. that is a very good point (and i completely forgot about it): on the only platform where we still need moz, we can't actually build it from source except with an additional old MSVC installed. i agree that in this special case it's best to just unzip the pre-built binaries; there apparently hasn't been a need to re-build these in a long time if the 06-Sep-2011 timestamp on the server is reliable. let's hope that the binaries will continue to work until the remaining address books are re-implemented. ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
