==Steps took to complete build==
info*Asked Mike Lau a few questions about Ubuntu.*Installed the build –essential, which is the synaptic package manager (i.e. Library Manager). <pre>sudo apt-get install build-essential</pre>*Installed the CVS library, from the synaptic package manager.*Added environment variables to my environment script ( /etc/environment)<pre>CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsrootCVS_RSH=ssh</pre>*Checked out the trunk. *Started build for Firefox.*Received an error during my build. The [http://pastebin.ca/173662 error] stated that my /usr/bin/pkg-config was not found.*I knew I was missing a package but I wasn’t sure what the name of the package was. So I used Google to see if I could find a solution. I didn’t find any useful links so I asked Mike Lau if he had come across any errors like the one I had.*After speaking with Mike Lau, I got the packages that I needed.*I Installed packages libidl-dev and libgtk2.0-dev from the synaptic package manager. *After installing the packages I tried to rebuild Firefox again. *Received another error during my build. The [http://pastebin.ca/173672 error] stated that it could not compile a basic X program. I knew that my int_types.h was missing so I knew that I was obviously missing a library but wasn’t sure which one. *I used Google again to see if anyone had faced the same problem. I found a link on [http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-232557.html Ubuntu Forums] that gave me a package libgtk2.0-dev to install. But i had already installed it.*I then decided to try the IRC chat and pasted the [http://pastebin.ca/173672 error] that I received and asked for some help.*Philip Vitorino offered to help me and explained to me that I was just missing a package. I told him that I wasn't sure what package I was missing. I told him the packages that I had installed and he gave me a package to install. *I installed libxt-dev<pre>sudo apt -get install g++ libxt-dev</pre>*Rebuilded Firefox and left it running over night.*Next morning everything had gone smoothly, I ran Firefox in the terminal and got the browser running. <pre>/dist/bin ./firefox</pre>
