Connor Sheehan 17a15ff0aa Bug 1697956: install `m4` as a common package on Debian/Ubuntu r=firefox-build-system-reviewers,mhentges DONTBUILD During `mach bootstrap` for Firefox desktop, m4 is installed via `libgtk2.0-dev`. Since we don't install that package for Android bootstrap, this causes configure failures. Install `m4` as a common package to fix configure on Android. Since we plan to remove `libgtk2.0-dev` soon, this will also avoid breakage when that change lands. Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D108692		2021-03-17 14:19:35 +00:00

mozboot - Bootstrap your system to build Mozilla projects
=========================================================

This package contains code used for bootstrapping a system to build
mozilla-central.

This code is not part of the build system per se. Instead, it is related
to everything up to invoking the actual build system.

If you have a copy of the source tree, you run:

    python bin/bootstrap.py

If you don't have a copy of the source tree, you can run:

    curl https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/default/python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py -o bootstrap.py
    python bootstrap.py

The bootstrap script will download everything it needs from hg.mozilla.org
automatically!
