firefox-x11 2.0.0.13 gmake no rule to make target "config/Makefile.in", needed by "config/Makefile"

[vaneijck@…]

Hi,

I can't get my firefox-x11 build on Leopard Macports 1.6 (intel macbook pro). On another computer I managed to get it going with firefox 2.0.0.7 even with the "build_number" error, so I think the problem is in the Makefile and not related to the build_number.

Strangely, I've not found any bug-reports on this anywhere and I can't find any obvious reasons/problems inside the Makefile itself.

I've tried a clean+install to recompile, doesn't work. Can anyone help or suggest where to look?

thanks in advance,

Lambert van Eijck

Please attach $(port work firefox-x11)/mozilla/config.log.

similarly 'port install seamonkey' fails with the same error for the mozilla subdirectory.

Still an issue? firefox-x11 is at 3.something now

Closing due to age. As Toby mentioned over a year ago, we're on 3.x now (which builds fine for me)
