(In reply to Landry Breuil (:gaston) from comment #48)
- the construct you use for DLL_SUFFIX doesnt work, here with SO_VERSION set
in the env it still uses 1.0. Can you use such construct as seen in
m-c/configure.in ? See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648721
for the background.
2307 if test $SO_VERSION; then
2308 DLL_SUFFIX=.so.$SO_VERSION
2309 else
2310 DLL_SUFFIX=.so.1.0
2311 fi
Here it does weird stuff such as
./js/src/config/autoconf.mk:DLL_SUFFIX = .so.$(if
$(SO_VERSION),$(SO_VERSION),1.0)
./js/src/config/expandlibs_config.py:DLL_SUFFIX = normalize_suffix(.so.$(if
$(SO_VERSION),$(SO_VERSION),1.0))
./js/src/config.log:configure:14534: cc -shared -fPIC -pthread -o
libconftest.so.$(if $(SO_VERSION),$(SO_VERSION),1.0) -Wl
./js/src/config.log:cc: $(SO_VERSION),$(SO_VERSION),1.0): No such file or
directory
./js/src/js-confdefs.h:#define MOZ_DLL_SUFFIX .so.$(if
$(SO_VERSION),$(SO_VERSION),1.0)
Tested on amd64, will test it on other exotic archs i have around.
spidermonkey currently builds on
amd64/ppc/i386/alpha/mips64{,el}/sparc64/hppa, i'd like to get the same
coverage..it only badly fails at runtime on mips64/sparc64 hppa.
I'm not sure what change is required here. It looks like the relevant
code on esr17 is the same as on m-c. Would you be able to provide a
patch?
Once this last issue is sorted, I'll make the final release.

I could audit them, which might be useful anyway. Otherwise I'll probably just go according to suggestions from embedders. So: 2.1. Audit security fixes looking for anything that didn't land in ESR10. Land anything that looks like it can land there. 2.2. Apply Wes's patch for library names. 3.

[Bug 1113166] [NEW] update to new mozjs188 library
Public bug reported: The release of a new mozjs library should be happening later this month, which will be based of the Firefox esr17 engine. Atleast with respect to gnome-shell the new release fixes lots of leaks and Garbabe Collector (GC) deadlocks. Since this would be good to get this update into raring, creating this as a tracking bug. Gjs 1.35 has been ported (which should land upstream before gnome freeze mid Feb) and I have tested this against both gnome-shell 3.6 and 3.7, there are significant improvements in memory usage, and I have not seen a single GC deadlock. Currently none of the other rdepends have been ported as far as I know, and its probably not realistic to get all of them ported before the Ubuntu freeze. There are quite a lot of trivial API changes between mozjs185 and 188, although most are picked up by compiler errors or seg faults. A large portion of the work could be done by some compatibility defines and some sed magic, however the end results is quite a large diff, so probably not something that would want to carry as a distro patch. As such, atleast for the short-term would probably need to have a transition period with both versions available. Reverse Depends: libgjs0c gnome-shell (will just require rebuild) oolite gxine gnome-shell dehydra couchdb-bin cinnamon (will just require rebuild) 0ad (I believe upstream want to go straight to FF18) One last thing is that the soname format will probably change to libmozjs-17.0.so (i.e. Firefox versioning). ** Affects: mozjs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1113166 Title: update to new mozjs188 library To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mozjs/+bug/1113166/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
