Re: Cannot build mozilla anymore on 2.8.2.1 (worked fine on 2.8.2) [solved]

[Vincent Rubiolo <vincent rubiolo free fr>]

Hi all,

Update. It successfully compiled at last (marking as 'solved' in subject header)

Explanation : the Makefile was indeed not created at compile time because I was
extracting the CVS libart archive _too late_ that is, _after_ the configure
step.
I solved this by interrupting 'make install' just after it extracted the
mozilla's source, then extracting the libart CVS archive. I then relaunched
'make install' so that the configure step takes the libart directory into
account and creates the Makefile.

Thanks for your help, I am now being able to reproduce in 2.8.2.1 the
gst-plugins problems I had on 2.8.2 :) See my other post for that.
