This corresponds to +version of 4.2 of Apple's Clang that ships with Xcode. This corresponds +to Xcode 4.6 and newer. Xcode 4.6 only runs on OS X 10.7.4 and newer. +So, OS X 10.6 users will need to install a non-Apple toolchain. Running +``mach bootstrap`` should install an appropriate toolchain from Homebrew +or MacPorts automatically. + +The tree should build with GCC 4.4 and newer on OS X. However, this +build configuration isn't as widely used (and differs from what Mozilla +uses to produce OS X builds), so it's recommended to stick with Clang. + +Linux +===== + +Linux 2.6 and later kernels are supported. + +Most distributions are supported as long as the proper package +dependencies are in place. Running ``mach bootstrap`` should install +packages for popular Linux distributions. ``configure`` will typically +detect missing dependencies and inform you how to disable features to +work around unsatisfied dependencies. + +Clang 3.3 or GCC 4.4 is required to build the tree. -- cgit v1.2.3
