I basically have set up a machine following the instructions here
http://www.project-moonshot.org/devwiki/ConfiguringRHEL/

and the firefox extension instructions from
http://www.project-moonshot.org/devwiki/testing/firefox/

I got the firefox sources from (actually, I had 3.6.24, since it was the
installed firefox version on my mahcine, but it doesn't seem to be
available any more)
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.25/source/firefox-3.6.25.source.tar.bz2

I configured it with (after echoing the ac_add options as per instructions)
./configure --enable-application=browser

And then I tried to build it. I'm not really sure how to do it in the
firefox SDK, I've never developed extensions for firefox.

If this is enough for you to help me with the issue, it would be great.
However, I really don't rule out an PEBKAC issue here.

I'm having a small moonshot demo next week in Finland in a local
identity federation conference. I already have a working ssh demo I'll
show, so it's not critical to get this working. However, it could be
nice to demo that moonshot is relatively simple to get working with
other applications too.

Cheers,
Kalle
