cross platform building TB's Firefox
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Tor Browser hacking document has this section on building *just* Firefox - instead of the whole bundle: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorBrowser/Hacking#Buildin... I want to do that, but in a cross-platform manner; i.e. I want to build Mac & Win versions of TB's Firefox on Linux. And I'd like to avoid running the whole build system to make things faster.

You should be able to coerce mkbundle-windows [0] and mkbundle-mac into doing just step 3 by 'touch'-ing the correct files so it thinks it's already done steps 1 and 2. You can run them independently by doing ./mkbundle-windows.sh versions[.alpha/.beta] -tom [0] https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-bundle.git/tree/gitian/mk...

Can't remember if it made a difference but when I had similar problems (avoiding full builds cross platform) I switched to the Mozilla 'mach' build script. It's documented everywhere and might do a few things that the yaml scripts using plain old make(1) don't pay attention to. $HOME/devel/tor-browser.git$ ./mach build ...might need to set CONFIGURE_ARGS too. Good luck. Cheers, Michael
