OOo doesn't strictly require imake. IIRC it's just NAS which requires xmkmf and imake. I can certainley build OOo 2.0.1 (using ooo-build-2.0.1) without xmkmf and imake when disabling NAS. > I had built Firefox using Randy's new method of the system NSS/NSPR > libraries.

That's a bug in the upstream sources.
