I have to install 74MB of binaries/headers just to compile Firefox..
I didn't say that I will need it after the compilation, i said that I need to install it compile and I don't want
so I asked if someone has built Firefox with a mozconfig like the one I posted
The Firefox source tree is about 200MB +/- and you're worried about 73MB of libraries needed for compiling? Are you doing this on a flash drive or something?
But anyway, I'd say if someone was doing a build like you wanted, they would have come forward by now. You're probably SOL.
BTW, some of those build config options are worthless if you're building Firefox.
I worry about 73MB of libraries because I don't need any GTK/gnome-related stuff. I just need the runtime environment! Why should I make dirty my system just to build a program?
Of course I would be "happy" to use 200MB for the sources because I really need it!
But this is really OT about my original request
SOL -> Shit Outta Luck? uhm, I'm guessing what it means.. but I just hoped that someone had a build like the one I wished.. nothing more
thank you anyway, I will continue to use the official build.
