Description

[M. Uchida]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; ja-JP; rv:1.9b2) Gecko/2008011114 Minefield/3.0b2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; ja-JP; rv:1.9b2) Gecko/2008011114 Minefield/3.0b2

Files of xpcom/sample(libxpcomsample.so, and so on) are not installed.
Files of xpcom/sample(libxpcomsample.so, and so on) are created by doing 
"make -f client.mk build" command.
But, they are not installed by doing "make install" command
at /mozilla/obj-i686-pc-linux-gnu/ directory.
Is that the specification of firefox-3.0b2 ?
I builded firefox-3.0b2 by the command "make -f client.mk build" with the
following
.mozconfig file. 
---------- .mozconfig from -----------
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/obj-@CONFIG_GUESS@
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
ac_add_options --enable-debug
#ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-installer
#ac_add_options --enable-installer
ac_add_options --enable-shared
# ac_add_options --disable-shared
ac_add_options --disable-optimize
# ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-O3 -march=i686 -finline-functions

ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk2
ac_add_options --enable-libxul

This is intentional, these are examples of how to build extensions and not pieces of the browser.
