Building palemoon master on Debian Sid Jul 12 2017 Topic is solved

[dasgestoompher]

Hello good people,

I have downloaded palemoon master from github and tried to compile.

I ran apt-get build-dep firefox to grab all the dev dependencies (hopefully).

I used the default build config from instructions:

Code: Select all

# Please see https://www.palemoon.org/redist.shtml for restrictions when using the official branding.
ac_add_options --enable-official-branding
export MOZILLA_OFFICIAL=1
 
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
 
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=/home/$USER/pmbuild/
 
ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-O2 -msse2 -mfpmath=sse"
ac_add_options --with-pthreads
 
ac_add_options --disable-installer
ac_add_options --disable-updater
 
ac_add_options --enable-release
ac_add_options --enable-devtools
ac_add_options --enable-jemalloc
ac_add_options --enable-shared-js
 
ac_add_options --enable-strip
 
ac_add_options --x-libraries=/usr/lib

mach output is in pastebin for length

Code: Select all

 0:23.08 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
 0:23.08 /home/klopsi/Downloads/pm/Pale-Moon-master/config/rules.mk:818: recipe for target 'libxul.so' failed

What is the cause? TY

Which version of GCC are you using?
Have you tried a clobber build?

[dasgestoompher]

gcc version 6.4.0 20170704 (Debian 6.4.0-1)

Target: x86_64-linux-gnu

I have only tried the git master from today.

GCC 6 support is experimental at best. Please try building with GCC 4.9 or disabling optimizations (using -Os)
