What a messed up project I have. I need to run firefox3 at work on a |
2 |
non-gentoo distro, yet it won't build, and the binary won't print, |
3 |
because of an out of date gtk lib (gtk+-unix-print-2.0.pc) which I |
4 |
can't update for reasons beyond my control. However, it builds and |
5 |
runs and prints on my home gentoo box, so I had the brilliant idea of |
6 |
building a static firefox3 there and running it at work. |

The destructions on how to build a static firefox don't work, or maybe |
9 |
I just have old fashioned on what a static executable should look |
10 |
like. I would have expected ldd to show just one monolithic command. |
11 |
Instead it shows 57 lines of output, with a complaint that libnss.so |
12 |
is not version NSS_3.12. This is hard masked in portage. Could that |
13 |
prevent making a proper static executable? Or has the definition of a |
14 |
static executable changed to allow external libraries? |
