Description Ben 2003-05-10 21:22:09 UTC

This is my first Ebuild... Its based on the Mozilla 1.3 ebuild file...

It downloads the source from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/

And builds then installs it.. then deletes the source file from the dist folder
and the digest files so you can rerun the ebuild and download the new nightly
source.

you need to set:
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage
in your make.conf file...

and place the ebuild file into /usr/local/portage/net-www/mozilla

then: cd /usr/local/portage/net-www/mozilla
then run: ebuild mozilla-1.4b.ebuild digest
then run: emerge mozilla-1.4.b.ebuild

Reproducible: Always

Sorry, wrong category. New ebuilds belong in the Gentoo Linux category.

Bug 20773 here and bug 20622 seem a little similar to me.  What does policy say about nightly builds?  I was under the impression that nightly builds weren't officially allowed but I have seen mozilla beta releases before on the tree.  If nightly builds were allowed I'd very much like to see ebuilds for both phoenix and mozilla nightlies which have already been produced.

Comment 4 Andrew Thompson 2003-05-18 15:09:37 UTC

Emerging Mozilla 1.4b seems to break Evolution which has mozilla as a dependancy. Just rolling back to Mozilla 1.3 fixes the problem but I'd like to have Mozilla and Evolution play nice together.

Nightly is pretty much the same as live cvs ebuilds ... too volatile to
officially support.

As for the mozilla/evolution issue, the newer evolution do support ssl
via openssl, so you could do:

  # USE="-mozilla ssl" emerge evolution

which should fix the dependency on mozilla ...

As mozilla 1.4b is already out, we don't need a nightly ebuild.
