I am trying to build libgluezilla - https://github.com/mono/gluezilla which is important part of mono (required by webbrowser package) which was removed from latest ubuntu version, however I get this:

checking Mozilla XPCOM 1.8... You need to install the Mozilla XPCOM development package.

What is that and how I find it? I installed mozilla XULRunner which is supposed to contain this, however it didn't solve the issue.

You need to Setup XPCOM in Linux environment , refer this for setting it up . –  tijybba Jul 16 '12 at 12:12
Is there any simpler guide which is based on ubuntu? The link you provided describe the process on linux in general, I suppose there is some package for that –  Petr Jul 16 '12 at 12:15
The article is more than 10 years old and doesn't seem to answer this question. What exactly am I suppose to download and from where? It describes installation steps, assuming I have some source codes, but where I get them? –  Petr Jul 16 '12 at 12:19
You need to install Xulrunner for xpcom as described here –  tijybba Jul 16 '12 at 12:33
That's what I have done, but it doesn't help –  Petr Jul 16 '12 at 12:34
