Good point - I was just copying what was given via about:buildconfig
In my case, this wouldn't matter as we lock the preferences
"app.update.auto" and "app.update.enabled" to false to prevent automatic
updates.
However, I don't know what a reasonable setting of
'enable-update-channel' should be instead?

Once 'make -f client.mk' has completed OK, cd to the
obj-i686-pc-linux-gnu subdirectory and run 'make package' and it will
create a bzip2'd tar archive in the dist subdirectory
