JSCall# Packages for Ubuntu Edgy
Sun, 2006-11-05 00:06 — Michael
Now that Ubuntu Edgy has gone final, and I'm no longer tracking the beta, I've made some checkinstall packages for JSCall#. Although JSCall# originated as the native part of AspNetEdit, it has other uses as a limited Gecko-C# bridge. You'll obviously need Firefox, though I don't think there are any other hard dependencies. If a Firefox update breaks the packages, please add a comment to this post to tell me, and I'll rebuild them. There's an AMD64 and an i386 version.
Anyone who's interested in trying AspNetEdit will still have to build MonoDevelop, but will no longer need the C++/GTK+/FireFox dev stuff (on Ubuntu Edgy anyway).

You should probably look
You should probably look into making packages with pbuilder or similar http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html and not use checkinstall since packages made with checkinstall do not deal with dependencies and are generally non-clean.
JSCALL on Fedora 6 with Firefox 1.5.0.8
Compiling JSCALL on a pure FC6 build fails with errors in the Firefox headers.
The code was extracted from Subversion on Sun Nov 19.
The error is:
