It is way too late to start moving stuff to an hypotethical xulrunner
31, so let's stay on the esr24 branch for this one - less important...
ok sthen@ jasper@ naddy@
- building from firefox-esr source tarball will allow us to better track
security fixes.. and download one less distfile.
- remove the two config/system-headers patches from #944454, were merged
in esr24 branch.
Went in a bulk build without fallout..
(because WRAP_STL_INCLUDES is 1 there), it apparently added to fix a
windows build issue (bug #557060), make absolutely no sense to me, and
nothing in the mozilla tree includes it.
Should fix packaging issue as seen on i386 by nigel@ & sthen@ (and
probably other archs)
Based off Firefox 24 ESR engine, with 300% less patching included, and
finally using a standard directory layout!
- Similar split between -main & -devel as done in 1.9.
- Can be installed alongside 1.9
- Ports using 1.9 will gradually be migrated to 24 so that the
unmaintained 1.9 can hit the attic..
- Should build on ppc & sparc64, and maybe even alpha. Time will tell..
- manually strip the sdk/lib/lib*.so libraries, otherwise that copy of
libxul is 1Gb on amd64..
- To be improved in-tree over time, but will be linked to the build.
