Status

Works with Thunderbird 2.0.0.17 on Ubuntu Gutsy (LinuxPPC?), including bi-directional syncing with Google Calendar.

Compiling

This .mozconfig worked for me: .mozconfig-lightning

. $topsrcdir/mail/config/mozconfig
. $topsrcdir/calendar/sunbird/config/mozconfig
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=mail,calendar
ac_add_options --enable-extensions=default,lightning
ac_add_options --enable-optimize
ac_add_options --disable-static --enable-shared
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-tests

Build instructions

1. Install libIDL dev files (apt-get install libidl-dev in Ubuntu)
2. Download and extract a lightning tarball
3. cd to the newly created mozilla directory
4. copy my .mozconfig-lightning to .mozconfig
5. make -f client.mk clean ; make -f client.mk build
6. if all goes well, the XPIs? will be in dist/xpi-stage

NOTE: When changing options in .mozconfig I had to "make -f client.mk clean" before rebuilding.
