673771 - Cannot get Mozilla Firefox to be build with linux 3.0 on Archlinux.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 661609

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Frederic Bezies]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:8.0a1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0a1
Build ID: 20110723081510

Steps to reproduce:

After I upgrade to Linux 3.0, I wanted to build mozilla firefox. I cannot get it build. I used this .mozconfig :

#
# See http://www.mozilla.org/build/ for build instructions.
#

export AUTOCONF=autoconf-2.13
export CXXFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fpermissive"

mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/../objdir-fx
mk_add_options MOZ_MAKE_FLAGS=-j4

# Options for ‘configure’ (same as command-line options).
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
ac_add_options --enable-optimize
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --disable-crashreporter
ac_add_options --with-ccache
ac_add_options --disable-installer
ac_add_options --disable-warnings-as-errors

All goes well, until security is processed :

nsINativeAppSupport.idl
../coreconf/config.mk:71: ../coreconf/Linux3.0.mk: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
make[6]: AVERTISSEMENT : -jN forcé dans un submake : désactivation du mode serveur de tâches.

make[2]: *** [default] Erreur 2
make[1]: *** [realbuild] Erreur 2
make: *** [build] Erreur 2

Looks like patch from bug 611609 was not applied in trunk ?


Actual results:

Build process is busted.


Expected results:

Build process going on

After applying manually patch for bug 611609, I get it build. Weird that this patch doesn't make it in my source code...

NSS has its own source repository, we take snapshots of release versions into the mozilla-central repository. (We treat it as an upstream project.)

bug 673382 will update mozilla-central to the most recent NSS release.
