Re: [Fink-devel] about corrupted binary of mozilla

2002-02-28 Thread David R. Morrison 

Hi Masanori.

Before yesterday, I was using the October Developer Tools, and I was unable
to build a working mozilla.

Now I have installed the December 2001 Developer Tools, and I rebuilt mozilla.
Everything works!  So I think you have found the solution to the problem.

I know that somebody else responded that for them, mozilla didn't build
correctly even with December 2001 Developer Tools installed.  Perhaps we
should urge them to try reinstalling the 12/2001 Developer Tools, and
then rebuild mozilla.

[Fink-devel] about corrupted binary of mozilla

2002-02-27 Thread Masanori Sekino 

Hi,

I'm trying to solve the problem about corrupted binary of mozilla,
which refuse to install.

I found an information about linker bug on mozilla web site:
http://www.mozilla.org/ports/fizzilla/Mach.html

They says that only Dec. 2001 Developer Tools can build a working
binary. So I'd like to ask two things:

1. Is there anyone who fails to build a working binary with Dec.
2001 Develoer Tools?

2. How to make mozilla package to depends on specific version of
developer tools?

Yes -- I've got that version of the devtools disc, and I've tried  failed
to build Mozilla three times; each time it has failed at the final dpkg
stages. The build process -- which took a solid 24 hours on my poor little
iMac (233 mhz G3, 160 mb ram, OSX 10.1.3)  -- *seemed* to finish cleanly
each time, ending up by the normal removal of the /sw/src/mozilla... build
directory and the creation of the mozilla...deb file, but then the dpkg
steps fail, and I don't know enough about Debian's apt/dpkg system to
diagnose the problem there. Sample output follows: 

[localhost Wed 2:02:31pm ~]% sudo fink install mozilla

Trying to figure this out is what led me to the [fink-$foo] lists in the
first place. I'm not even that worried about having Mozilla in the first
place -- I think I'd rather give Galeon or one of the other lightweight
Mozilla derivatives a try, but they all depend on having Mozilla present. 

Has anyone had any success in getting Mozilla or a Mozilla related browser
working on Darwin with Fink? Coming at it from a different direction,
could Darwin run a BSD or Linux version of Netscape 4.x? I'd like to be
able to get an X11 based graphical browser working, and Mozilla seemed
like the most straightforward option at first, but now I'm not sure.

Yes, several people, including Masanori (who made the package) and me.

No. Definitely not.

Dillo is a pretty basic one, but it normally works. :-)
