[PATCH] gnu: mozjs: Remove static library |
|
Date: |
Tue, 26 May 2020 23:15:57 +0200 |
Hi,
the attached patch removes lib/libjs_static.ajs from the output of
mozjs, a 30 MB static library. This mozjs is part of the closure of
gdm and gnome, so it reduces the size of most desktop systems.
The reason why I found that file, is because it is mentionned in
BLFS: http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/js68.html
0001-gnu-mozjs-Remove-static-library.patch

Thanks, that's a good idea. I managed to build a vm that way and
unfortunately gdm fails to start, so the static library must be used in
some way. I'm closing this without pushing anything.
