Description Fedora Release Engineering 2022-01-25 18:26:09 UTC
icecat failed to build from source in Fedora rawhide/f36

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=81786249


For details on the mass rebuild see:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_36_Mass_Rebuild
Please fix icecat at your earliest convenience and set the bug's status to
ASSIGNED when you start fixing it. If the bug remains in NEW state for 8 weeks,
icecat will be orphaned. Before branching of Fedora 37,
icecat will be retired, if it still fails to build.

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2022-02-08 20:48:12 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle.
Changing version to 36.

Comment 5 Bruno Wolff III 2022-02-14 22:21:50 UTC
This is important for at least rawhide because libvpx had a soname bump and the current version of icecat won't run. (It will install because there isn't a dependency of the specific version of libvpx's api.)

Comment 6 Antonio T. sagitter 2022-02-15 18:35:30 UTC
Unfortunately i can't build IceCat because of bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1753402

Comment 7 Bruno Wolff III 2022-02-15 20:54:27 UTC
It looks like there was a fix produced 5 days ago and that bug is now closed. Though there has not been a successful firefox build in rawhide since then either.

Comment 8 Bruno Wolff III 2022-02-16 05:32:04 UTC
I see the fix will likely help firefox, but a different fix is needed for icecat because something changed in between version 91 and 97. I don't think anyone is working on that upstream. Also there might be other issues that show up after this one is fixed, as supposedly the fix worked for our firefox, but the builds are still failing.

Comment 10 Bruno Wolff III 2022-03-09 22:59:11 UTC
Thanks for working on this. I see the current build attempt has succeeded for a few arches including x86_64, so I'll have something to try out tonight. I have missed having a working icecat the last few weeks.

Comment 11 Bruno Wolff III 2022-03-10 00:26:52 UTC
icecat-91.7.0-1.rh1.fc37.x86_64 seems to be working fine in rawhide. Thanks again!
