Hi I'm on ia64, so www/firefox doesn't build. (I know I'm on my own). I've several open bug reports with mozilla folk. I have to build from mozilla-central, outside of the ports tree. I wonder if anybody on this list has done something like this, say while preparing FreeBSD ports patches for firefox. Would be great to share tips, etc. For example, I'm getting this build failure with mozilla-central: Installed /usr/ports/www/firefox/mozilla-central/testing/mozbase/mozprofile Processing dependencies for mozprofile==0.1 Searching for pysqlite Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/pysqlite/ Reading http://pysqlite.googlecode.com/ Reading http://code.google.com/p/pysqlite/downloads/list Best match: pysqlite 2.6.3 Downloading http://pysqlite.googlecode.com/files/pysqlite-2.6.3.tar.gz Processing pysqlite-2.6.3.tar.gz Running pysqlite-2.6.3/setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /tmp/easy_install-vEpCLB/pysqlite-2.6.3/egg-dist-tmp-9BKkCI In file included from src/module.c:24: src/connection.h:33:21: error: sqlite3.h: No such file or directory Looking at the list of requirements in the ports for firefox-12, I can't see pysqlite. Maybe it's coming with firefox-13? Anyway, I wonder if I should install databases/py-sqlite3 instead.
