Operation not permitted - compiling

This is what I want to do:
Compiling mozilla with calendar support on Mac OS X.3,
I installed everything as stated on the mozilla.org web site for 
building on mac os.

During the make I get the following error:

Creating .deps
echo "#define DEPENDENT_LIBS \"libgkgfx.dylib\", \"libxpcom.dylib\", 
\"libplds4.dylib\", \"libplc4.dylib\", \"libnspr4.dylib\", 
\"libpthread.dylib\", " > dependentLibs.h
rsync -a --exclude .DS_Store --exclude "CVS/" ./DefaultPlugin.pbproj .
ln -fs ./English.lproj
ln: ./English.lproj: Operation not permitted
make[3]: *** [export] Error 1
make[2]: *** [export] Error 2
make[1]: *** [tier_9] Error 2
make: *** [default] Error 2

This happens as root too. What can I do?

Re: [Thunderbird] Associating external Mac OS X application to mime types

Hi,

I did not find a workaround either.

But it is working with my Mozilla 1.6 RC!

Calendar xpi for Mac OS X

I'm back :-D

Following a hiatus of more than one month due to computer trouble (both
my 15" 2002 iMac and my TiBook had to undergo necessary repairs during
January 2004) I'm now happy to annouce that a calendar_mac.xpi based
upon the 1.6 source code is available for download the usual place.

I'm at present cooperating with Mostafah on getting a working xpi out of
the 1.7a source code. The whole way of building as well as the internal
structure of the xpi has changed drastically between 1.6 and 1.7a which
at first threw me off. But now I'm on the right track again, and I've
actually been able to build an xpi :-) Unfortunately, it refuses to
install :-( Mostafah has modified the install script to give some more
feedback, and I'm at present compiling a new version.

So, you should shortly - within a week I suppose - be able to get a 1.7a
based xpi too. The difference between 1.6 and 1.7a is mostly bugfixes
and not any changes in fuctionality.

Mostafah mentioned that the xpi based upon the 1.6 codebase might not
work with earlier - eg 1.4.1 and 1.5.1 - versions of Moz. If somebody
would do me the favour of telling me whether or not the newest xpi is
working with these, and post their results here, I'll be grateful.
Frankly, I don't have the time to do any in depth testing of
compatibility and other possible issues that might arise, so I'm relying
on you - the faithful community - to do some of the work ;-) I've got
some builds made at the end of 2003 that I'll put up on the website for
download.

Further on, I'll work on the much harder issue of getting Sunbird to

don't know what's causing you the error, but you've given too little
informaion :
1) did you pull from cvs
1a) did you remeber to check that the tree was green
2) did you use a source tarball
2a) which tarball version

I've got some enhanced build instructions on my website that might be of
help to you. And it's very much possible to make it succeed : I've been
doing un-official builds since mid-2003. And I've - as you can see in
another post - just done the build under 10.3.2

yours in happy hacking

Re: Operation not permitted - compiling

I use the Mozilla Source 1.6 stable, the source from the releases 
directory. No CVS.

Btw. I am using your Calendar XPI module happily, but I wanted to 
compile it myself without chatzilla.

Thank you for your kind words :-)

Then it's not a standard compile with just calendar added.
Look, when stating a problem it's necessary to give all pertinent
imformation. That you want to compile /without/ chatzilla is a necessary
piece of information. Did you already have modified your .mozconfig with
that in mind when getting the error?

If you just want to add calendar to the mix my instructions on the
website is the ones to go for and they have been tested /exhaustively/.
One thing your can try is splitting the 'make -w -f client.mk build_all'
into three instructions : './configure' , 'make' , 'sudo make install'
When messing around with .mozconfig, you'll need to make sure that the
'./configure' step has run without any problem at all, so check the
output carefully for any errors in this step. That's how I found out
about some of the more peculiar dependencies like the need for having
X11 and freetype installed in builds before 1.5.1 - even though these
aren't actually used in the finished product.

You'll need to find out how to switch off chatzilla correctly off in you
.mozconfig.

*NEW* svg enabled Mozilla build available

I'm back :-D

Following a hiatus of more than one month due to computer trouble (both
my 15" 2002 iMac and my TiBook had to undergo necessary repairs during
January 2004) I'm now happy to annouce that a svg enabled build of
Mozilla based upon the 1.7a source tarball is available for download.

With the merge of the svg code unto the trunk, compling the beast with
svg enabled has been made considerably easier and now actually is just a
question of modifying the .mozconfig - no need to merge strange branches
etc etc.

A FireFox with svg enabled has so far eluded me, at the build process
fails during compling. So, so far the latest available of these is still
FireBird from 2003-52

As for the instructions for compiling these have changed drastically
between 1.6 trunk and 1.7a due to the merge of svg with the trunk, so
they'll have to be updated - which *will* happen in due time ;-)

We've still got the mac-only crasher as mentioned at the end of my
notes, and afri has been looking into it, but no solution is on the
horizon yet.

yours in happy hacking :-)

You can try to compile you own version with X11 support. It shouldn't be
that hard - just takes 8 hours on my system to do the normal builds ;-)

To get information on how to do an X11 enabled Mozilla, use IRC
(ChatZilla) and look for help in moznet #mozillazine and the Fink IRC
channels.

yours in happy hacking :-)

Ok, I got you.

I will post all of my steps tonight after work.
