Summary: BUG: epiphany depends on a working Firefox or Mozilla for X11 browserBUG: epiphany depends on a working Mozilla for X11 browser

Epiphany will not currently build with Firefox. According to upstream maintainers it requires Mozilla (preferably 1.7.12)

I just commited the changes needed to build mozilla, however, neither epiphany or galeon will build with it because of scope errors with nsString

comment:5 Changed 18 years ago by yves@…

I tried with epiphany 1.9.8 and galeon 2.0.1

comment:6 Changed 18 years ago by yves@…

galeon 2.0.1 builds fine with mozilla 1.7.12 but epiphany 0.9.8 always finds new ways not to build.

Closing as the Mozilla dependency issue is resolved. New bugs need to be opened for other problems with epiphany.
