OK guys .. Firefox 60 is going to take some time .. likely more for CentOS-6 than CentOS-7.
They both (C6 and C7 versions) require many non OS tools to build.
For CentOS-7 .. we need the rust-toolset, llvm-toolset, and devtoolset-7, to get the firefox to build.
<snip>
My current issue building the latest firefox is the required rust version.
In the [sclo-rh] section of the epel-7 mock config I change line:
includepkgs=devtoolset*
to
includepkgs=devtoolset* llvm-toolset* rust-toolset*
Current rust is 1.20 and configure will stop asking for 1.24.
indeed .. that is one issue. I am working on it .. we also have to do i386 as that is released in the base OS .. so I have to get a working devtoolset-7 for i386, ppc64, ppc as well .. and the latest rust and the latest llvm .. for i386, x86_64, ppc64le, ppc64, ppc, aarch64, armhfp .. that is for C&
I would just do x86_64 and i386 first, then the rest .. BUT .. since I have to bootstrap the devtoolket and llvm and rust on c7 for i386 anyway .. also doig ti for the other arches does nto really add any more time as the compiles are in parallel on different machines.
Hopefully for C7 I will have updates by Monday
For C6 .. I am going to need to rework rust, etc. .. that will take longer .. rust requires python27 not python26 .. so lots of patches are going to be req'd for that.
This is a status update ..
I now have the c7-devtoolkit-7 built for all arches (i386, x86_64, armhfp, aarch64, ppc64le, ppc64, ppc).
I now have the c6-devtoolkit-7 built for all arches (i386. x86_64).
I am in the process of building the latest llvm-toolkit and the rust-toolkit for CentOS 7 on all arches. (Both needed for firefox-60 on c7)
I am in the process of figuring out all the changes needed to build the rust-toolkit for CentOS-6 as there is no released source code with the proper patches yet .. and it needs to be modified to build with the python used in EL6.
So, hopefully very soon we will have all the required kits to build firefox for CentOS-7 .. CentOS-6 may be a bit longer.
Status currently is that I have a version built for CentOS-7 x86_64.
I am currently still building the require toolsets for i386 as firefox.i686 is released as a multilib package in the x86_64 repo.
So, I can't release the x86_64 package without the i686 one.
You can download the x86_64 package manually if you don't want to wait .. but I should have them both (i686 and x86_64) for CentOS-7 later today.
Here is the built package for x86_64 (and the build logs, etc):
https://buildlogs.centos.org/c7-firefox60.x86_64/firefox/20180711062841/60.1...
For CentOS-6 .. still building the required toolkits for both x86_64 and i386. Should have everything there done i a couple of days as well.
