Hey /g/uys, I have a generic linux account with non-root privileges. I am able to compile many programs I need, however the machine doesn't have a web browser included with it. I've tried compiling Chromium and Firefox, but they require too many dependencies and I simply can't just `sudo apt-get` them. What is the easiest web browser I can compile on a generic Linux machine? Thanks in advance.

I've heard Midori is suppose to be pretty small and lightweight, I've never compiled it myself though so I wouldn't know.

You're trolling. Every linux machine has a root. Log into it with su, use aptitude install firefox and you're fucking done.
Unless you're on Gentoo or Void, or a seriously fucked and complex Arch build, why even compile stuff?

It's not my machine, it's a managed system.
