Comment 2

just to make it clear, it does work in .zip builds

Comment 3

[Nickolay_Ponomarev]

Last time I tested (11 hours earlier) it was due to interface info for
nsIDOMCanvasRenderingContext2D not generated (xpt). Copying this file:
http://mozilla.doslash.org/stuff/nsIDOMCanvasRenderingContext2D.xpt
to firefox\components and restarting fixes the problem.

Is Cairo enabled for installer builds? See also bug 293249 of which this might
be a duplicate.

Comment 5

[Nickolay_Ponomarev]

yes, at least it was 11 hours ago. It's more of build config differences between
installer/zip builds I guess.

Comment 6

[Peter van der Woude [:Peter6]]

a search in prog files/firefox/ for containing word "cairo" gives
firefox.exe , compreg.dat and toolkit.jar
for a .zip

and nothing for an installer build

Comment 7

[Anne (:annevk)]

Per comment 6 I'd say this is a duplicate of bug 291765. Or just invalid.

Comment 8

[Peter van der Woude [:Peter6]]

or component build-config
It was supposed to work, so inva/dupe doesn't seem right.

has --enable-cairo. Peter are you sure you checked the right build?

I did search the .zip build for any file containing the word "cairo"
with 3 files as result.

the reporter did the same for an installer build, with no files found as result.
I did not verify it by installing a build myself

[Peter van der Woude [:Peter6]]

got other confirmation about cairo not being build on FF installer.
What next, change summary , or close this bug as inva and file a new one under 
FF - build-config ?

Comment 12

[Mike Pesce (:By-Tor)]

Due to user error, I reported the wrong results.  There are actually 10
occurrences of the string "cairo" in firefox.exe.  I did not find it elsewhere
however.  Maybe it's time to make this a build config issue.
