## Building LibreWolf from source: First, let's [download the latest tarball](https://gitlab.com/stanzabird/source/-/jobs/artifacts/main/raw/librewolf-94.0.2.source.tar.gz?job=build-job). Once downloaded, extract it. ``` export version=$(cat version) mkdir build cd build wget -q https://fresh.librewolf.io/librewolf-$(version)/librewolf-$(version).source.tar.gz tar xf librewolf-$(version).source.tar.gz ``` Next step, if you have not done so already, you must create the build environment: ``` cp librewolf-$(version)/lw-assets/bootstrap.py . python3 bootstrap.py --no-interactive --application-choice=browser ``` It takes about an hour for me to complete, but it needs to be done only once. This step might fail and cause problems. Now we're ready to actually build LibreWolf: ``` cd librewolf-$(version) ./mach build ``` Also takes me an hour. Then, we can run it: ``` ./mach run ``` Or make a package: ``` ./mach package ``` ## Building LibreWolf source tarball: You don't need the build environment for this. If you don't have write access, just: ``` git clone https://gitlab.com/stanzabird/source.git cd source make all ``` If you **do** have write access, we're first gonna check for a newer version of Firefox: ``` git clone git@gitlab.com:/source.git cd source make check ``` If there is a new version, it's a good time to git commit and trigger a CI build job. ``` git commit -am v$(cat version) && git push ``` To build the source archive: ``` make all ```
