[arch-general] firefox & gcc 4.3
Hi, i have been trying to build firefox3b4 or firefox 2.0.0.12 for the past day without success. I guess it has something to do with the latest gcc upgrade to 4.3. Has anyone managed to build it, from AUR or not, within the last couple of days? ps. i am using the testing repo Greg

Thats not what i asked.I know about those. I am trying to build my own firefox for various reasons. My PKGBUILD worked some days ago, but not now. By the way ff3 in testing wasnt built with gcc 4.3 either. Also google or the mozilla bugzilla dont help much as i havent seen any reports of failed attempts to build firefox. Greg

http://rafb.net/p/tNKcg183.html line 44 seems to be the reason it fails. firefox 2.0.0.12 failed at some other point but dont have it handy at the moment Greg

It needs to be patched to build with gcc 4.3. Add: #include <cstring> to crashreporter_linux.cpp see: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2008-March/005175.html for explanation -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

FTR, I'm using ac_add_options --disable-crashreporter in mozconfig so I guess that's why I hadnt build errors.

Taking advantage of the opportunity would you mind sharing your mozconfig ? Greg

This: error: ‘strlen’ was not declared in this scope is due to some include file cleanups made in gcc-4.3. Adding #include <cstring> helps. Best, -- Maik

See http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2008-March/005175.html Maybe you could try adding #include <cstring> at the top of crashreporter_linux.cpp

Thanks for the 3(!) replies guys, but that solution didnt work for some reason. It still fails at the same point with the same error. Sorry for the late reply but firefox takes almost 2 hours to build here and it fails at some point near that and its very irritating. For starters, i am gonna try disabling the crashreporter and see what happens then. Greg
