If you find something that's not working in these builds that is working
in the other 1.4 branch nightly builds
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest-1.4/ (or RC1) please
let us know.
Thanks.

Hmm, you also need to have that gcc version (or its libraries)
installed, right? I downloaded mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-sea.tar.gz
dated 11Jun2003 18:14 from the latest-1.4-gcc323 dir just now, and
already the installer says
./mozilla-installer-bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The mozilla binary in the xpi (which I unpacked manually) has similar
problems, ldd says
libstdc++.so.5 => not found
libgcc_s.so.1 => not found
This is with Red Hat 7.3 with the standard gcc-2.96-113 installed.

I've been using home builds of the trunk 1.5a and previously 1.4{a,b}.
RH9(up2date), gcc3.2.2 (not 3.2.3 though). Works for me. But I think you
were looking for problem reports rather than happies.
I seem to remember reading somewere, a bit back a gcc2.9.x vs gcc3.x
debate with a decision to stick with gcc2.9.x (2.9.x?) for 1.4. Memory
fail? Change of Heart?
There was this Java plugin issue which was a real problem but that's
fixed a while.
change of heart, prompted by a legal issue.
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204236 has details.

No, please don't. Attempts are being made to make these builds work on
as many systems as possible, and it will be helpful to have testers with
different systems.

Mozilla should continue to be buildable with gcc 2.9x versions. In
fact, it should continue to be buildable with egcs (as it is now, more
or less).
Just because mozilla.org is switching compilers does not mean everyone
wants to or should.

for these RC builds, you do need the libraries yes. that shouldn't be the
case for the actual release though (which will be statically linked
instead of dynamically linked).

OK, the RC2 release built with gcc-3.2.3 now seems to have linked them
statically and I can run that one here nicely!

There are some perfectly good reasons to NOT do that, you know....
