This project is my experiment to build Firefox web browser on Haiku OS.
Official Build Instruction pulls the (partially-) pre built binaries to build the browser.
But, there is no such a pre-built binaries to use, because Haiku has not been a supported build environment yet.
We should follow the build process one of the tier-3 build targets, here I'll look in the FreeBSD's one.
-
- System preparation
- 1.1 Install Python
- 1.2 Install Mercurial
- Installed, but not used.
- Retrieved tar.xz
-
- Bootstrap a copy of the Firefox source code
Currently, the FreeBSD port targets the 112.0 version of Firefox.
But we'll target the current ESR version(102.9) (or older releases) if there is only old ports of prerequisites.
