Build dependencies dropped for Thunderbird extension

I just committed some code to trunk that removes the need for any external libraries or tools needed when building the Thunderbird extension (other than the ones needed by beagle self of course). So, if you could build beagle before you probably can now as well. Try it out and give me some feedback here :-)

A small disclaimer: The update was pretty extensive and I might have missed to update a variable name, function call or something like that. I’ve tried the extension out a bit and it seems to be solid. But I just wanted to get this out.

    Hi Pierre!

    Although I’ve managed to build one of your previous releases, I am not able to build the latest one (3849) - there’s still a dependency not satisfied:

    mozilla-thunderbird-xpcom >= 1.5.0.0 not found

    I am running Fedora 7 - and there’s no thunderbird-dev package in the official repository :(

    Hey Albert,

    I think the problem is that you are using the incorrect branch. You are still using my personal branch, beagle-tbird-soc07, and not all changes have been checked into it yet. My mentor wanted all Thunderbird related code in this branch so he will check it some time though. But I suggest that you switch over to building the trunk instead as it contains all changes. Give it a try and let me know :-)

    Yeah, of course you were right :D
    Thanks for help, now everything works perfectly :)
    I will test it a bit now and surely let you know if something goes wrong.

    Cheers
