And thunderbird has similar issue(s) to firefox-esr (gentoo use their firefox patches for thunderbird). Meanwhile, firefox-82.0 (technically, build candidate 2) is fine. But until thunderbird can be built, there seems little point in even thinking about going back to current firefox. Then I took another look at the gentoo patches. First, their second rust-1.47 patch (0037) was not applying because 0036 changed the same file - I'd overlooked that, and was trying dry runs on each before applying any of them. Applied al three to 78.3.0, diff'd, then realised I had not edited the last, and biggest, patch (their 0038). Gentoo patches create extra files which they then pass to patch, out patches get applied directly. So I'm now working through this one, and boy, is it long (over 30000 lines). I'm again hopeful that the three will fix 78.3, and that the third on its own will fix 78.4. But not particularly close to testing that. On one of the updated cargo packages (proc-macro2) in the patch - version updated from 1.0.5 to 1.0.24 - in its caro.toml I see the following: +targets = ["x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"] (no other targets mentioned near that) A quick gurgle on github shows this is the full latest version of it, so I am _hopeful_ that 32-bit x86 doesn't need this. But I'll mention it now just in case it comes back to bite someone. Over the weekend I expect to start updating my other systems to firefox-78.4.0 latest candidate (so far only one, build2) so I suspect that progress on moving the book to llvm-11 with rustc-1.47.0 and patches for 78 versions of firefox and thunderbird will now be a week away (or more if I decide to update all my packages and build a fresh up to date system). ĸen -- The people next door oppress me all night long.
