Almost but not quite. Off the top of my head once you've installed the
spec file you need to:
In the spec file you need to change the nspr/nspr-devel to
mozilla-nspr[-devel] with version of 1.7.10 (it will inc greater vers)
and remove the cairo dep.
Then in the firefox-mozconfig remove the lines with system cairo and
pango. You need to remove the pango because it deps on cairo.
Once you've done that you should be able to do a rpmbuild -ba
firefox.spec and then just wait. I've been doing this ever since the
alphas started to appear in rawhide.
