Hi,

I see that SBBS provides the SpiderMonkey 1.8.5 source code, and compiles it as part of make install.

I see that Debian provides mozjs185 - so I wanted to leverage it instead of compiling it again (saves a heap of time on the Pi). (And I'm doing many compiles to get my docker container right.)

However, running make with JSLIB and JSINCLUDE set ends in an error unless you add -l$(JSLIB) to the GNUmakefile in src/sbbs3 (around line 210). Could you add that to CVS?

What platform and version of Debian (or which variant) are you building on?

That should be fixed in CVS now.

Rob made some changes to JSLIB recently, I have been unable to build on any PC under Debian, Ubuntu or Raspbian until he made those changes. Not sure why it always failed with some js* error but it is compiling now :) odd, too, because all of the PCs that failed under a Deb flavour were successful under Slackware :\

Yes, strange. I've always built successfully on Intel and Pi using debian (stretch). But I recommended those changes to Rob because the build was soo long, (especially on the Pi), and one library is provided by APT (so it seemed unnessary to recompile it.

I think when I first wrote those instructions there was no libmozjs-dev package for the platform, so we had to include it (the source and patches) and build it on the device. Glad there's a package now.
