A patch commenting out the offending function? OK, I could submit such patch, but I'm not sure this is the right solution and I do not know V8's source at all to make a real fix.

And I pretty much understand what cloning means, so at least it's clear the problem is in the most recent source. However, I'm just trying to build V8 library without having to read tons of documentation and learning new tools (mostly used internally in Google as it seems), because V8 is not my primary development interest, but just a dependency I need to satisfy. Anyway, now that I was able to build V8 with the help of the people from this group (including you) how could I install it? There is no "make install": $ make install $ make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop. Perhaps I also need to elaborate my own installation script? My ultimate goal is to build a package in order to redistribute V8 library more easily and conveniently, but frankly V8 is the toughest software in terms of building and packaging that I met since long ago. -- -- v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-users" group.
