Following up on my recent post to npm.xpinstall... I need someone with a
mac build system to help me finish bug 20640 and the
PACKAGING_20030906_BRANCH. If you have the time to pull and build this
branch and run a few tests for me, it would be a great help.

If you can send me the CVS instructions and any special modifications to
the .mozconfig file, I'll be happy to help out

I've been dabbing into both Calendar, SVG and SunBird before:

so I've got some experience in messing around building Moz on Mac OS X

yours in happy hacking :-)

Thank you!

CVS/building is pretty simple:
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot
cvs checkout -r PACKAGING_20030906_BRANCH mozilla/client.mk
cd mozilla
make -f client.mk checkout

Your .mozconfig should be plain & simple:
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=some objdir

# Options for 'configure' (same as command-line options).
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize

After the thing is built, could you run this command and send me the output:
cd (objdir)/build/package
make dump-packages PACKAGE_FLAGS=-w
