Thunderbird + ligthning


There is a new version of the Lightning plugin to Thunderbird.
But it is not compatible with the Thunderbird shipped with Slackware.

Because of that I modified the slackbuild from here and download the source of Thunderbird from here.

And now I can enjoy Thunderbird 9 with lightning.
I provide the modified slackbuild.
Just download all the contents from here, except the thunderbird source and the slackbuild it self.
Download the thunderbird source from here.
Copy my slackbuild and remove .txt from the name.
Have a temp folder with a lot of space and compile

I couldn't install it. There is something like this

Code:
rm -f libhost_breakpad_common_s.a

Hi,

Yes, it gave this error:
Code:
ranlib: libhost_breakpad_common_s.a: No space left on device
Free up some space on /tmp (looks like you're building there), clean up and try again.

Kind regards,

Eric

I underlined and bolded the important error message. Try freeing up some disk space.

Like i said it need a very big /tmp directory.
If you have a limit in your /tmp or is mounted in RAM please momentarily mounted in an external disk for example.

You can do this with
Quote:
mount -o bind /tmp /media/some_disd/tmp
.

Then you can compile the program

Can you say exact how big it should be? I've 20GB on / and 10GB on /home, and tmp is in /. I've 7 or 8GB left in /.

Hi,

This doesn't proof you're an idiot, just that you're human. We all make mistakes. Glad you got a solution.

Kind regards,

Eric

It reached around 3 gigas.
But sometimes the problem is that you don't have more inodes to new files, because it produces a lot of small files.

I build it in a external disk :-)
