Pale Moon on OpenBSD
Posted: 2020-07-24, 15:40
I know posting this I'm risking of losing my account, but, I just post my experience. Building software is one of my hobby, and I enjoyed it. PM is the first software I tried to build with my new OpenBSD system.
This is the .mozconfig I used:
Don't know why jemalloc is not supported on OpenBSD. I installed all of the dependencies of PM and gcc/g++ 8.3 from OpenBSD's binary packages.
I used this command to build PM: CC="egcc" CXX="eg++" ./mach build
The compilation is straight forward even though I can't complete it. The error is there:
It seemed I don't have enough memory to build PM. I have 8G and it's still not enough. I surprised that with this 8G of RAM I could build PM just fine on Linux but failed on OpenBSD, a system people said more lightweight than Linux.
If I could build PM on OpenBSD, I'm willing to provide my build as a third party build of PM.
This is the .mozconfig I used:
