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 and the second line determines where the build objects are going to reside.

ac_cv_visibility_pragma=no fixes build errors on non 32bit 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 installeversion 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.

If you would like dual monitor support, append your your .mozconfig with the following:

cat >> .mozconfig << "EOF"
ac_add_options --enable-xinerama
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

If you do not have JDK installed then add the following to your .mozconfig:

cat >> .mozconfig << "EOF"
ac_add_options --disable-javaxpcom
EOF
