my .mozconfig has the following:
mk_add_options MOZ_PHOENIX=1
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --enable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize=-O2
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-mailnews
ac_add_options --disable-composer
#ac_add_options --enable-xft

any ideas?

What verson of Perl do you have?

[dirtbag]

sunbox% perl --version

This is perl, version 5.005_02 built for sun4-solaris-thread

[alanjstr]

Take a look at preprocessor.pl line 74 and see if you can figure out what it's doing. I don't know if anyone has actually built on Solaris yet. There was an open bug for a while about it.

[dirtbag]

methinks I need perl 5.8... I might have to compile this on a different box..
ill let yall know how it goes..

thanks.

I ran into this on FreeBSD 4.7 - it's complaining about the version of File::Spec. You can find this file by doing

<code>find `perl -le 'print "@INC"'` -name Spec.pm</code>

Check the top of the file and you'll see the $VERSION variable. On my system, perl 5.005_03 (the builtin perl) had a Spec.pm with $VERSION = 0.6.

Installing perl 5.6.1 (the perl5 port) gave me a Spec.pm with $VERSION = 0.82, which was enough to fix the error.

[dirtbag]

ok, so I had to drop back and punt and do this on another solaris 8 box with gcc 2.95 on which I could install an updated perl (5.8.0) .. Installed glib and gtk and downloaded the mozilla cvs, and the configure for mozilla ran fine..
now during the buld, im getting an error as follows:

I searched google and found a few instances of this, but didnt see a decent answer..

[dirtbag]

actually a horrible hack seems to have worked .. I copied the jsmath.o from the original sunbox I was compiling phoenix on to the new one Im compiling it on and its compiled past that part now. we shall see..

[dirtbag]

Hallelujah!!!
finally got it compiled and the damned thing works! woohoo!!

but I wanted to compile on this machine and export to another solaris box. but it got built with dynamic libs..
# file phoenix-bin
phoenix-bin: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped
#

so how does one compile this statically?
I tried using ./configure --enable-static
but that didnt seem to work..

any ideas?

[dseven]

Why can't you "export'" a dynamically linked binary? The only thing I do is make sure that the 4 Gnome liibs:

libgtk-1.2.so.0
libgdk-1.2.so.0
libgmodule-1.2.so.0
libglib-1.2.so.0

are included in the distribution, since mozilla sometimes hangs if it picks up different versions of those...

So long as the machine you're "exporting" to is reasonably up-to-date it should be OK...
