Creating a .mozconfig
The .mozconfig file contains the options that will be used to build firefox.
The first line includes the default configuration for compiling a browser and the second line determines where the build objects are going to reside. ac_cv_visibility_pragma=no fixes build errors on 32bit non-x86 systems but won't cause any trouble on x86. Having --with-system-nss and --with-system-nspr does not mean you *HAVE* to have a system installed version of nss and nspr. It makes the build system prefer to use the system installed version of nss and nspr over the internal version. --enable-canvas enables support for the <canvas></canvas> tag. --enable-svg enables support for rendering svg files. --enable-strip causes the installed binaries to be stripped. --disable-tests prevents test programs from being built which saves a lot of disk space and time. --disable-accessibility - disables a11y support. --disable-installer prevents the installer from being built. --enable-official-branding causes the installed binaries to have the official Firefox name embedded in them. Due to license restrictions, you may not distribute binaries created using this option.

If you would like dual monitor support in Firefox, append your your .mozconfig with the following:
cat >> .mozconfig << "EOF" ac_add_options --enable-xinerama EOF
If you have OpenLDAP installed and would like to build Firefox against it. This is required to build OpenOffice2 against Firefox. Append your .mozconfig with the following:
cat >> .mozconfig << "EOF" ac_add_options --enable-ldap EOF
If you would like to render fonts with Pango, append your your .mozconfig with the following. This can significantly slow font rendering.
cat >> .mozconfig << "EOF" ac_add_options --enable-pango EOF
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
make -f client.mk build
Install the package:
make -f client.mk install
Multilib
The order that the builds are displayed on this page isn't neccesarily the order that you install them in. If you would like a 32bit browser but still require the 64bit libraries for other packages build the 32bit version last.
Remember, Use a clean source and build directory for each build, Firefox is no exception.
32Bit
Use the following command to append your .mozconfig with 32bit specific flags:
cat >> .mozconfig << EOF
export CC="gcc ${BUILD32}"
export CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}"
export USE_ARCH=32
ac_add_options --host=$CLFS_TARGET32
ac_add_options --build=$CLFS_TARGET32
mk_add_options CONFIG_GUESS=$CLFS_TARGET32
EOF
x86
Compile the package:
make -f client.mk OS_TEST=x86 build
