%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ Xulrunner Xulrunner is a runtime environment for XUL applications, and forms the major part of the Mozilla codebase. In particular, it provides the Gecko engine together with pkgconfig files so that other applications can find and use it. &lfs72_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &xulrunner-md5sum; Download size: &xulrunner-size; Estimated disk space required: &xulrunner-buildsize; Estimated build time: &xulrunner-time; Xulrunner Dependencies Required , , and Recommended , , , , and If you don't install recommended dependencies, then internal copies of those packages will be used.

A default mozconfig is created below. To see the entire list of available configuration options (and an abbreviated description of each one), issue ./configure --help. You should review the entire file and comment or uncomment options as necessary. cat > mozconfig << "EOF" # If you have a multicore machine you can speed up the build by running # several jobs at once by uncommenting the following line and setting the # value to number of CPU cores: #mk_add_options MOZ_MAKE_FLAGS="-j4" # If you have installed DBus-Glib comment out this line: ac_add_options --disable-dbus # If you have installed wireless-tools comment out this line: ac_add_options --disable-necko-wifi # If you have installed libnotify comment out this line: ac_add_options --disable-libnotify # Uncomment these lines if you have installed optional dependencies: #ac_add_options --enable-system-hunspell #ac_add_options --enable-startup-notification # If you have not installed Yasm then uncomment this line: #ac_add_options --disable-webm # Comment out following options if you have not installed # recommended dependencies: ac_add_options --enable-system-sqlite ac_add_options --with-system-libevent ac_add_options --with-system-libvpx ac_add_options --with-system-nspr ac_add_options --with-system-nss # It is recommended not to touch anything below this line ac_add_options --prefix=/usr ac_add_options --enable-application=xulrunner ac_add_options --disable-crashreporter ac_add_options --disable-installer ac_add_options --disable-updater ac_add_options --disable-debug ac_add_options --disable-tests ac_add_options --disable-mochitest ac_add_options --enable-optimize ac_add_options --enable-strip ac_add_options --enable-install-strip ac_add_options --enable-system-ffi ac_add_options --enable-system-pixman ac_add_options --enable-shared-js ac_add_options --with-pthreads ac_add_options --with-system-bz2 ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg ac_add_options --with-system-png ac_add_options --with-system-zlib mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/xulrunner-build-dir EOF Install Xulrunner by issuing the following commands: make -f client.mk This package does not come with a test suite.
