If you have enough RAM (1 GB) you could compile it too and then run
it with gdb. I'm not in a hurry and I'll be out of town the next
week. I try to update my sources and my patchfile to offer a patch
which will apply against a recent nightly-snapshot of mozilla.
At work I have this ram but not at home only 756Mb so I will take
timeto compile (time to read perhaps :-) ). For the time being I have
to download a source equivalent to yours. Do you have a specific
adress or do I search on the mozilla site ? One question, when you
speak of mozilla, you speak of firefox, am I wrong ?
'Only' 756 MB should be ok, maybe you'll need to increase the size of
your swapfile. I have 512 MB until today with a swapfile of 1 GB, I
increased the swapfile size to 2 GB because I want to build a debugging
version now, but my /tmp drive was full...
I build the complete mozilla, including mail/news, firefox alone fails
to build currently (with my initial patch), I have not tried thunderbird
or calendar standalone yet. These are all things that are remaining
once I see a working browser.
What currently fails too is all security related, aka 'personal security
manager', in this part of the tree they don't use autoconf and I have
problems to figure what to change to get the paths in the Makefiles
correct.
You can fetch a recent nightly snapshot of the tree here:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-source.tar.bz2
I send the latest patchfile later this evening to be created after I
have updated the tree with:
$ cvs -z9 up
