Rene, I need your help on something. I left seamonkey compiling overnight, got up this morning and it was completed.
But, I have to start the explanation back in time...
A few years ago, I used to compile seamonkey by running the
'configure' script directly.
However, some Puppy testers reported bugs in my builds, that were not
in the official binaries.
So, I changed to configuring in the recommended way, using "make -f
client.mk", and those bugs mysteriously disappeared.
Running seamonkey 2.32, compiled in T2, there are bugs that reminded
me of those old bug reports.
For example, the download window has empty fields -- it is supposed to
have information in the "Time left", "Transferred" and "Speed" fields,
but they remain blank.
So, I have conducted an experiment. I have created a new package in
T2, package/www/seamonkey2p3, with a .conf file that runs the "make -f
client.mk".
It compiled and installed, however T2 aborted with an error (which is
what I want to ask you about, but that is digressing for now).
I copied usr/lib64/seamonkey-2.32 into my running Quirky Linux, and am
running it now. Now, the download window ***works correctly***.
So, I have confirmed that it is essential to use "make -f client.mk".
For the experiment, to have absolute control over every step, I used
custmain(), I have attached the package/www/seamonkey2p3 directory,
however here is the .conf:

custmain=sm_custom_build
check_shared=0
Before compiling seamonkey, I manually deleted the previous
installation of seamonkey in the build, and added "check_shared=0" so
that T2 will not complain about the existing flist/seamonkey.
I must emphasize that this .conf is just for the experiment, to prove
the concept. Everything is hard-coded.
Note that .mozconfig can now be named mozconfig (without the dot).
Anyway, T2 completes everything in custmain, then aborts with an
error. This is at the bottom of ERROR-LOG:
make[1]: Leaving directory
'/TOOLCHAIN/src.seamonkey2p3.quirky64.20150127.000229.27808.puppypc16549/comm-release/objdir-sm-release'

Due to previous errors, no 5-seamonkey2p3.log file!
(Try enabling xtrace in the config to track an error inside the build system.)

...my understanding is that with custmain, normal behaviour is
overridden. Why is T2 doing this:
Hook preconf is still marked as dirty running it, now ...
Hook premake is still marked as dirty running it, now ...
sed: can't read config/autoconf.mk: No such file or directory
In short, how do I tell T2 all is well, leave it alone, do not do
those extra things that are causing the abort?
Note, if I can get T2 to play nicely with my .conf file, the next step
is I will replace all that hard-coded stuff with proper tests and
variables.
Regards,
Barry
