Hi guys,

I thought I'd check out this tla thing and do a lnx-bbc build (it's
been a while). My machine has since been upgraded to Fedora Core
2. Just for kicks I tried the research branch but that didn't get
far. I'm now doing the stable branch inside the chroot, and got this
problem with phoenix:

make[9]: Entering directory `/home/len/dev/gar/lnx-bbc--stable--2.1--patch-29/net/phoenix/work/singularity.d/mozilla/security/manager'
/usr/bin/make -C ../../security/coreconf MAKE="/usr/bin/make -j1" -j1 MOZILLA_INCLUDES="-I/home/len/dev/gar/lnx-bbc--stable--2.1--patch-29/net/phoenix/work/singularity.d/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/home/len/dev/gar/lnx-bbc--stable--2.1--patch-29/net/phoenix/work/singularity.d/mozilla/dist/include/dbm" SOURCE_MD_DIR=/home/len/dev/gar/lnx-bbc--stable--2.1--patch-29/net/phoenix/work/singularity.d/mozilla/dist DIST=/home/len/dev/gar/lnx-bbc--stable--2.1--patch-29/net/phoenix/work/singularity.d/mozilla/dist MOZILLA_CLIENT=1 NO_MDUPDATE=1 BUILD_OPT=1 NS_USE_GCC=1 NS_USE_NATIVE= clean
make[10]: Entering directory `/home/len/dev/gar/lnx-bbc--stable--2.1--patch-29/net/phoenix/work/singularity.d/mozilla/security/coreconf'
../coreconf/config.mk:67: ../coreconf/Linux2.6.mk: No such file or directory
../coreconf/config.mk:167: no file name for `-include'
/usr/bin/make -j1: *** No rule to make target ../coreconf/Linux2.6.mk.  Stop.
make[10]: *** [../coreconf/Linux2.6.mk] Error 1

Looks to be confused by my 2.6 kernel. I thought that it may be a case
of the stable branch being behind the times (i.e.: possibly using a
version of phoenix prior to the release of 2.6) so updated the
makefile to point at the latest firefox release instead. That died in
a flaming heap as well, with errors that suggest that my GCC (3.3.3)
is stricter than firefox is comfortable with. For now, I'm commenting
net/phoenix out of my build :-). So much for being on the bleeding
edge eh?


Cheers,
Len.
