in firefox-2 about:buildconfig shows --disable-jsd, which means no working javascript debugger. couldn't find any such option in ebuild, so no way to change this.
USE=mozdevelop

(In reply to comment #2) > *** Bug 156169 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** There was one new point in my bug: extensions assume that --disable-jsd is not used. Firebug quietly fails (because the author probably isn't even aware of the existence of --disable-jsd), while Venkman says: "JS Debugger Service is not installed. (Perhaps this application was built <snip> with --disable-jsd <snip>. You can resolve this by recompiling without that option or complaining to your vendor [who shouldn't be using that flag]" So, there's a consensus in the JavaScript developer community is that the flag shouldn't be used. Turning it off by default is a disservice to Gentoo users (I lost at least a half hour of my time tracking down why JS debugging wasn't working). Who wins by having it turned off?
