18 | The information below is for the Enigmail and IPC downloads. Additionally,
|
---|
19 | a makemake file is download because we cannot build Enigmail using an
|
---|
20 | object directory without it. Informaiton about the Enigmail source to
|
---|
21 | check for updates is located at http://enigmail.mozdev.org/source.html.
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | The link to the makemake file is near the end of the page in the section
|
---|
24 | titled "Using OBJDIR when building Enigmail". Ensure you check the rev
|
---|
25 | level of the link and update the "enigmail-makemake-version" entitity
|
---|
26 | if necessary. In case you are wondering why the version has the question
|
---|
27 | mark and "rev=" in it, it is because the complete URL is used in a command
|
---|
28 | and it would extend past the 71 characters that PDF render is limited to.
|
---|
29 | It should make sense after you see it rendered in the wget command.
