After updating the ports today and trying to rebuilding firefox, I see it
trying to use the zlib module.
Commenting it out in work/mozilla/Makefile seems to work:
#ifndef MOZ_NATIVE_ZLIB
#tier_1_dirs += modules/zlib
#endif
I only noticed, because my own www/mozilla/Makefile.common takes care to not
even extract libbz2 and zlib modules:
RCS file: /meow/ncvs/ports/www/mozilla/Makefile.common,v
retrieving revision 1.17
diff -U2 -r1.17 Makefile.common
--- Makefile.common 14 Oct 2006 08:35:23 -0000 1.17
