Building the package means first getting FF itself to build:
These instructions are for an interactive build.
- Follow the guidelines in the Building Firefox On Windows documentation from mozilla.org. And I actually recommend to follow this documentation until you have a working |mach run|. I also recommend using Git, not Mercurial, as we're going to need it later in our build.sh.
- Once you have built the entire mozilla-unified with all the mach bootstrap stuff (which will install the needed binaries in $HOME/.mozbuild), don't forget to copy the entire C:\Program Files\Git folder to /c/mozilla-source to get a sed.exe that understands the -z option, and to get sha256sum.exe.
- You can now delete the mozilla-unified folder, or keep it, if you want to play with FF itself.
- Then clone the windows repo:
git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/windows.git
- cd into it, and build with:
bash build.sh
- This should produce a zip and installer exe in your top folder.
build.sh
You can perform all the steps on one go, or perform the build steps individually, to note:
bash build.sh fetch prepare build package installer_win
