294663 - Firefox does not build for x86_64

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Tim Skirvin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050512 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: 

The build steps for x86_64 Firefox fail in at least two places. I'm trying to
build on an Athlon64 3500+ system running RedHat Desktop 3.  The build has
stopped in at least two places:

1.  mozilla/toolkit/locales/en-US/chrome/necko/contents.rdf is missing.  I
temporarily patched this by copying in netwerk/resources/content/contents.rdf

2.  nsProfile.cpp fails to build

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Standard build steps (gtar, configure, gmake)

Actual Results:

You never said the exact commands that you were using to build firefox.  Given
that profile/src/ isn't traversed during a normal firefox build, I'm going to
guess that your build setup is incorrect.  See
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/build.html for firefox build instructions.

I just typed:

tar -xzvf firefox_package.tar.gz
cd mozilla
./configure
make

I guessed it works nearly everywhere. May be, I am completelly wrong.
