Update.

The reason Yelp and Epiphany would not compile on Slackware was because
Slackware choose to install the mozilla-produced binary package of
firefox, not compile it from source. Thus, all dev libraries, .pc files,
etc. are absent. The proper workaround would be to remove the installed
firefox package and roll out a new source compiled firefox. When done,
Yelp and Epiphany compile fine.

Here is my .mozconfig setup and configure options which basically
reproduces the standard Slackware file installation layout. HTH:

.mozconfig:

source browser/config/mozconfig

ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2
ac_add_options --enable-xft
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize
ac_add_options --with-default-mozilla-five-home=/usr/lib/firefox

configure options (will pick up the .mozconfig options too):

configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var

make

and as root

make install.

voila.
