[532e5c9] | 325 | With the introduction of <application>gcc-12</application>, many

| 326 | more warnings are generated when compiling mozilla applications
|
---|
[f572dbb] | 327 | and that results in a much slower, and larger, build. Furthermore,
|
---|
| 328 | building with GCC on i?86 is currently broken.
|
---|
[532e5c9] | 329 | Although upstream mozilla code defaults to using
|
---|
| 330 | <application>llvm</application> unless overridden, the older configure
|

[eebff7b] | 331 | code in <application>Seamonkey</application> defaults to gcc.

[8a71122] | 336 | the supplied dependencies and the <filename>mozconfig</filename>.
|
---|
[4e7ec17] | 337 | The building system always checks for an old version (2.13) of
|
---|
| 338 | autoconf, but it's not really needed because the necessary
|
---|
| 339 | <command>configure</command> scripts are already shipped in the
|
---|
| 340 | tarball and we've not modified the <filename>configure.in</filename>
|
---|
| 341 | files. So we pass <envar>AUTOCONF=true</envar> so the building system
|
---|
| 342 | will skip the checking for autoconf-2.13 and allow building this
|
---|
| 343 | package without autoconf-2.13 installed.

| 356 | because you have insufficient memory, using fewer cores can be faster.

|

[a0d389d] | 373 | individual tastes, finer grain control of many options is only available
|
---|
| 374 | using a tool not available from the general menu system. To access this
|
---|
| 375 | tool, you'll need to open a browser window and enter
|
---|
| 376 | <systemitem role="url">about:config</systemitem> in the address bar. This
|
---|
| 377 | will display a list of the configuration preferences and information
|
---|
[33befb9] | 378 | related to each one. You can use the <quote>Search:</quote> bar to enter
|
---|
[a0d389d] | 379 | search criteria and narrow down the listed items. Changing a preference
|
---|
| 380 | can be done using two methods. One, if the preference has a boolean value
|
---|
| 381 | (True/False), simply double-click on the preference to toggle the value
|
---|
| 382 | and two, for other preferences simply right-click on the desired line,
|
---|
| 383 | choose <quote>Modify</quote> from the menu and change the value. Creating
|
---|
| 384 | new preference items is accomplished in the same way, except choose
|
---|
| 385 | <quote>New</quote> from the menu and provide the desired data into the
|
---|
| 386 | fields when prompted.
