Only if (and *only*) if you build mozilla from source, you need
libIDL, glib2 and gettext in addition (and pkg-config for not having
to specify lots of enviornment variables when building those extra
deps).
An to build these, you need a recent 'autoconf, automake or whatever'
No. You don't. Release tarballs don't require you to run autoconf or
automake to begin with.
And even if it would be required, the autoconf/automake already
provided by XCode would be enough.
so ./configure --prefix=/my/seamonkeydepsdir/ && make && make install
for those abovementioned requirements is enough. (and setting
PKG_CONFIG=/my/seamonkeydepsdir/bin/pkg-config)
Actually that should not be needed anymore. we deliver a m4 macros
for mac to circumvent the need for pkg-config
I know, I wrote that patch :-))
But it is still necessary to compile the requirements to compile
mozilla/seamonkey from scratch.
That is not covered by LO autogen/configure (yet)
And when you don't install PKG_CONFIG for those, you have to provide
the corresponding environment variables with the corresponding flags,
thus pkg-config is just for convenience.
