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.
