• To build ZINC you need a Mozilla source tree. I am going to use Mozilla-1.7.3 and make a gtk2 build.

  • To build you setup a mozconfig file. I have attached the one I used.

    <a href="mozilla-1.7.3-i686-linux-gtk2.mozconfig">mozilla-1.7.3-i686-linux-gtk2.mozconfig</a>

  • To make issue this instruction in the root of the mozilla source:

    setenv MOZCONFIG /product/cmiss/mozilla/mozilla-1.7.3/mozilla-1.7.3-i686-linux-gtk2.mozconfig
    make -f client.mk build
    make -f client.mk install
    

• Put the path to the installed pkg files into your PKG_CONFIG_PATH:

  setenv PKG_CONFIG_PATH /product/cmiss/mozilla/i686-linux/mozilla-1.7.3-gtk2/lib/pkgconfig/
  

• Build zinc:

  aclocal
  automake
  autoconf
  ./configure
  make
  

• To make an installable xpi:

  make packages
  

  To use that just go "File->Open" from a mozilla and point it at the file built into the install directory.

• If you install it will put it into your mozilla build that you built against:

  make install
