254346 - 1.7.2 source package is broken/incomplete

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Build Config, defect)

Description

[Frank Wein [:mcsmurf]]

Someone reported that 1.7.2 source doesn't build, so i made a diff from
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7/src/mozilla-source-1.7.tar.bz2
against
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7.2/src/mozilla-source-1.7.2.tar.bz2
It seems some quite important files are missing (that browser/,toolkit/ and
camino/ are missing, is ok, but the rest is not i think). See
http://mcsmurf.milten.lima-city.de/patch for the diff between those two files.

I'm finding the same thing.  For example Moz/Milestone.pm (in fact the entire
config/Moz directory) is missing, so an attempted build dies almost immediately.
 It seems to be impossible to build using mozilla-source-1.7.2.tar.bz2

I downloaded the source and attempt to update the cvs via

cvs up -P inside the mozilla directory, it doesn't seem to work.

looks like NMOZILLA_1_7_2_RELEASE tag didn't include all the files?

I did a CVS checkout of 1.7.2 this morning, and Mozilla just finished compiling.
So at least in CVS this -seems- fixed, don't know about the tarballs.

The tarballs are still the same, so no change there.

First I got "Can't locate Moz/Milestone.pm", then (after having downloaded it),
I got "No rule to make target `MoreFiles/Makefile.in', needed by
`MoreFiles/Makefile'".

Will mozilla-source-1.7.2.tar.bz2 be updated (eg the one at
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7.2/src/ )
after these issues (all the missing files) have been resolved?

The new tarballs just appeared on the ftp site, I am able to build it from
source now. Thanks!
