808382 - Linux l10n builds fail because it's building gio

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Build Config, defect)

Description

[Frank Wein [:mcsmurf]]

The SeaMonkey linux l10n builds currently fail because they try to build with gio, but gio requires GTK>=2.14. l10n-mozconfigs need to adopt the fix from Bug 795359, too.

Easy to review.

"checking for gtk+-2.0 >= 2.14... configure: error: * * * Could not find gtk+-2.0 > 2.14. Required for build with gio.
configure: error: ./configure failed for mozilla
program finished with exit code 1"

An es-AR trunk hourly has been compiled with success for linux-i686. Hopefully the rest will follow.

Note that AFAIK no 64-bit localized Linux builds are being built (yet). Not even attempted to be built. If you want a localized L64 SeaMonkey, install the en-US L64 build and a langpack built on any platform (currently W32, soon -apparently- L32, still not on the Mac).

[Approval Request Comment]
Regression caused by (bug #): 
User impact if declined: No l10n builds on Linux for aurora/release train later
Testing completed (on m-c, etc.): I downloaded a current nightly build from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-central-trunk-l10n/seamonkey-2.16a1.de.linux-i686.tar.bz2 and checked that the build uses the German locale
Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): Low risk, no alternatives
