A bit of clarification; I'm not a programmer/developer. I volunteer |
| 9 |
to do a couple of niche builds. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
* the SSE-only linux build for Pentium-3-class machines |
| 12 |
* the 32-bit linux "unstable" build |

I have a few desktops and laptops at home. I wanted maximum optimized |
| 15 |
manual builds for my machines. I set up separate working directories |
| 16 |
for each machine, with symlinks to the same source directory. The build |
| 17 |
script was the same, so it was also a symlink. The only differences |
| 18 |
were the mozconfig files, and a small "customize" include file. From |
| 19 |
there, it's a minor incremental effort to add another directory or two. |
| 20 |
The major part of the effort was setting up a CentOS 6.5 chroot to match |
| 21 |
the build environment for the mainstream linux build. |
