Where can I follow these changes? One specific example is bug 1002729 and the like... Currently m-c does not build with gcc 4.6 on ubuntu because something similar. After updating to 4.8 I got some warning in webrtc code, so I had to turn off warning-as-errors. In the past we changed required windows SDK unannounced too... That being said I can totally imagine that I don't follow the right channels where these kind of changes are announced. For example, do we have a way to tell the exact configurations on the try server? Like exact gcc version / linux version... > > In any case, it's good to keep in mind that Try follows mozilla-central > in terms of build configuration and requirements -- which means it's > inherently unstable.

But let's say I want to work on a similar configuration as the linux box on try, where can I check the exact environment on it to reproduce something similar? Once I have it, how will I know that I should update something on it to match what we have on try?
