In packages/powerpc, there is a precompiled package of firefox36,
but no newer version (there is in ports though). Perhaps the reason
is folklore knowledge, but why isn't the port being prebuilt?
Makefile says
# necessary glue to build with the correct compiler after fx 17
MODULES += gcc4 lang/clang
MODGCC4_ARCHS = powerpc
MODGCC4_LANGS = c c++
MODCLANG_ARCHS = amd64 i386
MODCLANG_LANGS = c c++
Am I understanding that right that with gcc4 and lang/clang installed,
I can build www/mozilla-firefox on macppc (powerpc) too?
Is this situation different (with respect to bulk builds)
from a normal dependency (of firefox on gcc4)? Is this why
newer frefox is not being prebuilt for macppc (powerpc)?
