  1. palemoon (Web browser -- BUILD FROM SOURCE)
  2. This SlackBuild builds Pale Moon from source.
  3. For a binary repackage, see 'palemoon-bin' at SlackBuilds.org.
  4. Pale Moon is an Open Source, Goanna-based web browser available for
  5. Microsoft Windows and Linux (with other operating systems in
  6. development), focusing on efficiency and ease of use.
  7. This SlackBuild attempts to compile, build and package Pale Moon,
  8. Slackware style, in a manner that conforms to official Pale Moon Linux
  9. releases; while, at the same time, providing useful and easy ways to
  10. deviate if desired. This SlackBuild may conflict with the alternative
  11. SlackBuild known, here at SBo, as "palemoon-bin"; which repackages
  12. binaries offically released by the Pale Moon devs.
  13. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  14. See http://docs.slackware.com/howtos:software:palemoon for additional
  15. tips and help resources.
  16. Using the Oxygen theme is known to cause Pale Moon to crash; if you are
  17. experiencing crashes, and segfaults, make sure you are not using this
  18. theme; or use Alienbob's patched oxygen-gtk2; which will fix this issue.
  19. http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/oxygen-gtk2/build/ See the
  20. help doc link above for other creative tips and workarounds.
  21. A native fork of FireFox's developer tools exists as an external add-on
  22. or internally. Pale Moon by default ships with the developer tools
  23. internally; if this is undesirable, dev tools can be disabled by passing
  24. the script the parameter:
  25. DEVTOOLS=no ./palemoon.SlackBuild
  26. Pale Moon's default is to build, ship, and use its own internal
  27. dictionary; if desired, however, do USE_SYSTEM_HUNSPELL=yes
  28. ./palemoon.SlackBuild, to use the Slackware system Hunspell instead.
  29. This assumes you have dictionaries such as hunspell-en or hunspell-es
  30. installed in /usr/share/hunspell -- the location that a few SlackBuilds
  31. at SBo install them.
  32. To remove the "AdNauseam" extension from the Pale Moon blocklist, do
  33. ADNAUSEAM=unblock ./palemoon.SlackBuild
  34. If your processor doesn't support sse2 instructions or you get
  35. segfaults, try looking in the SlackBuild for the OPTIMIZE build option
  36. (eventually refer to the Pale Moon developers for help).
  37. jack-audio-connection-kit is an optional dependency and, if detected,
  38. automatically built. If this is undesirable you can blacklist jack, by
  39. passing the variable:
  40. BLACKLIST_JACK=yes ./palemoon.SlackBuild
  41. To enable debug information, pass the script the parameter
  42. ENABLE_DEBUG=yes
