Well, I just tried to comment on the blog post, but Disquis ate it. Or something.Īpart from those issues, it actually almost Just Worked back then. I certainly had to fix a bunch at the time (see link in the third blog post).Ģ) You'll need copies of the relevant SDKs on the Linux boxes and will need to explicitly point to them in the mozconfig, I suspect (CROSS_LIB_PATH, etc).ģ) You'll probably need to fix bug 543111, since I doubt breakpad magically got happier cross-compiling since then.Ĥ) Like the third blog post says, make package needs a Linux binary that can create a dmg. So the gotchas (mostly lifted from those blog posts plus vague memories):ġ) You will probably have to fix whatever cross-compiling bugs have crept into our build system over the last 3.5 years. In any case, I documented what I did at the time here: At the time I was using Apple's gcc on Linux (via the toolwhip project), but presumably we'd just use clang now.

I had this working at some point a few years back, doing OSX builds on Linux, including distcc stuff. I corresponded with bz who had tried this before.
