I would like some people to test these patches. Specifically, can someone build with the patches I posted (I think you'll have to remove the -soname arguments to DSO_LDFLAGS) on a -stable machine. Follow the build instructions on mozilla.org. And, can someone try compiling against a real copy of Motif. I'm not happy with using .so extentions on the ELF shared libraries, they must be .so.1, but then it doesn't build because it wants to link against .so files, and there is no easy way to add .so -> .so.1 symlinks... Can anyone tell me if the -soname argument is needed for a direct call to 'ld'? If anyone out there listening is fairly familiar with FreeBSD's internals, can they check the changes I have made, especially those for pthreads support, to see if they are right. They seem to be, and everything builds, but I'd like to be 100% sure before submitting these. I already sent most of these changes to mozilla.org, but was mostly ignored. The NSPR guy corrected my patches, but never committed them. Seems if you don't have a netscape.com address you have to submit changes one line at a time. :( Regards, -Jeremy -- | What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak? --+-- What will people do when they find that it's true? | I don't really care if they label me a Jesus Freak, | There ain't no disguising the truth. - d c Talk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mozilla" in the body of the message
