Source: mozjs52
Version: 52.3.1-4
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-powe...@lists.debian.org
Build-time test suite failures for mozjs52 have been made non-fatal on
ppc64el because the tests time out. This is clearly a bug, but it isn't
clear what the severity of that bug is: it could be anything from minor
(if trivial functionality is broken) to RC (if mozjs52 is basically
unusable on this architecture).
Any testing and patches that ppc64el users can provide would be
appreciated. If it isn't fixed, depending on feedback about the severity
of whatever underlying bug is causing these test failures, mozjs52 will
either remain available with known test failures, or be removed from
ppc64el (with the test failures becoming a FTBFS).
mozjs52 is used by current versions of gjs, so architecture-specific
removal of mozjs52 would also require architecture-specific removal of
gnome-shell, gnome-maps, polari etc., which would in turn make the
GNOME task and metapackages uninstallable on this architecture.

According to buildd logs and #905199, this seems to have been fixed,
so I'm going to try making test failures fatal on ppc64el again.

We now have a newer mozjs (mozjs52 52.9.1-1, and I'm preparing mozjs60
for submission to NEW) so hopefully we have picked up improvements
from upstream. While preparing mozjs60 I checked for relevant patches in
firefox-esr v60's debian/patches and didn't see any.
