414623 - Add client.py for pulling appropriate bits when building out of cvs-trunk-mirror

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Dave Townsend [:mossop]]

Attachment: client.py pulling NSS NSPR and xmlextras

Pulling from cvs-trunk-mirror doesn't include nspr or nss and there is still a default build dependency on xmlextras. For myself I have been using a cut up version of client.py from mozilla-central to pull these to make my builds work, this is attached.

It would be useful for this to go into CVS for general use, possibly also get changed so it can figure out the appropriate NSS and NSPR tags from client.mk or something so it doesn't have to be changed. We could also just disable xmlextras in the default 1.9 build I think?

Other things that it might be worth pulling are the Thunderbird, Seamonkey and Sunbird version configs, currently the DOM inspector extension is broken in builds from hg since it relies on these to generate a valid install.rdf.

This bug seems out of date, now that we have (working) mozilla-central and comm-central !?
