Thanks for the idea, I'm not in a hurry and don't have a desire to hand-jam upstream versions of firefox onto desktops. I just need to track progress on the patch release and report an ETA to our cyber security team.
I just figured CentOS had a fancy devops CI/CD system somewhere that I could keep tabs on to watch what's going on as patches get built, tested and published. Seems like all the cool kids are doing that kind of stuff these days.

This is what I do and it works well, script run as root after downloading compiled tarball from upstream.
#!/bin/bash
TMP=`mktemp -d /tmp/ff.XXXXXXXX` mv $1 ${TMP}/
pushd ${TMP}
FFOX=`echo $1 |sed -e s?".tar.bz2"?""?`
tar -jxf ${1}
chown -R root:root firefox
mv firefox /usr/local/${FFOX}
popd
pushd /usr/local
rm -f firefox && ln -s ${FFOX} firefox
popd
rm -rf ${TMP}
$1 is the FireFox downloaded from upstream (compiled)
Installing it as root means I am safe from malware over-writing bits of it, but I do have to manually download.
/usr/local/firefox/firefox then starts it - and old versions are preserved in case something breaks (I just change which one the /usr/local/firefox link points to - though I almost never have to revert)
It's not RPM but there are too many advantages to newer FireFox for me to wait.

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.
For CentOS-6, we need less items (no llvm-toolset required .. all the rest is required). But, there is no released source code for the EL6 version of rust-devtoolset upstream.
I am working on this now .. but we had the 6.10 release and the also 32 other items that dropped for CentOS-7 (both of which are now done).
I am not the only one having issues with Firefox-60 (see this thread on the Scientific Linux list):
https://listserv.fnal.gov/scripts/wa.exe?A2=ind1807&L=scientific-linux-d...
I hope to have this working soon .. but. it is not just a build and release kind of package.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes

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.

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.

CentOS-7 x86_64 and i686 firefox packages are now signed and pushed to the master server. They should be available on mirror.centos.org within an hour.
Expect the CentOS-6 firefox packages tomorrow before.
And the other Centos-7 altarch packages (ppc64, ppc64le, aarch64, armhfp) on Friday. There is no longer a ppc (32) firefox package as some of the tool kits do not build in ppc (32) .. that is also the case in RHEL (no longer a ppc firefox).
There is a possibility that the armhfp version could take longer than the other CentOS-7 AltAtch versions .. still workignon some technical issues on the rust-toolset for armhfp.

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.
The release of firefox will also include release of the scl toolsets for developers who modify and build for own needs?
The SCL SIG releases SCLs and devtool sets // they are not part of the OS, so no signed pieces will be released.
I could put them on buildlogs for the el7 ones if there is interest.
CentOS-7 x86_64 and i686 firefox packages are now signed and pushed to the master server. They should be available on mirror.centos.org within an hour.
Expect the CentOS-6 firefox packages tomorrow before.
And the other Centos-7 altarch packages (ppc64, ppc64le, aarch64, armhfp) on Friday. There is no longer a ppc (32) firefox package as some of the tool kits do not build in ppc (32) .. that is also the case in RHEL (no longer a ppc firefox).
There is a possibility that the armhfp version could take longer than the other CentOS-7 AltAtch versions .. still workignon some technical issues on the rust-toolset for armhfp.
CentOS-6 firefox-60 updates are built and in testing now. Should be released within the next hour or so.

The CentOS-6 version has this bug:

There is a fix there if you upgrade to this version .. which is releasing now.

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

Hi Johnny,
It would be good and appreciated if you could drop anything relevant on buildlogs.
SCL Sig (on dev list),
What is the ETA for releasing these updated packages by yourselves?
Regards
Phil
