checking for mozilla version... 1.7rc1 configure: error: ***************************************************************************** Epiphany can be built using Mozilla 1.4, 1.4.1, 1.4.2, 1.5, 1.6 or 1.7, but the version available is 1.7rc1. ***************************************************************************** The actual configure file contains: 1.7a) MOZILLA_SNAPSHOT=14 ;; 1.7b) MOZILLA_SNAPSHOT=15 ;; 1.7) MOZILLA_SNAPSHOT=15 ;; Adding the following line allowed me to compile it 1.7rc1) MOZILLA_SNAPSHOT=15 ;; Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Ugly, unnecessary hack. I suspect that the epiphany team will release a new version that is compatible with the current trunk anyday, like they've always done.
Epiphany 1.2.5 exhibits the same problem - it will not configure with mozilla-1.7-rc1 - and can be fixed with the same 'ugly hack' An alternative approach would be to add "--with-mozilla-snapshot=1.7" to the ebuild if 1.7rc1 is installed. ie use gnome \ && G2CONF="${G2CONF} --enable-nautilus-view=yes" \ || G2CONF="${G2CONF} --enable-nautilus-view=no" becomes: use gnome \ && G2CONF="${G2CONF} --enable-nautilus-view=yes --with-mozilla-snapshot=1.7" \ || G2CONF="${G2CONF} --enable-nautilus-view=no --with-mozilla-snapshot=1.7"
might not be problematic for the final, but its only a detection problem.
is this the root cause of this error? : undefined reference to `nsCOMPtr_base::~nsCOMPtr_base [not-in-charge]()' ../embed/mozilla/.libs/libephymozillaembed.a(GtkNSSKeyPairDialogs.o)(.text+0x8f2): In function `GtkNSSKeyPairDialogs::DisplayGeneratingKeypairInfo(nsIInterfaceRequestor*, nsIKeygenThread*)': I cannot currently compile epiphany and I get thousands of errors similar to these. I'm on mozilla 1.6-r1 or is this a bug all on its own
Since we have epiphany 1.2.6 in portage with support for mozilla 1.7 we can probably close this.
wontfix, this isnt a problem for the final version
