Description Jan Kratochvil 2011-03-16 16:53:10 UTC
Description of problem:
libvpx is separately built in Fedora.  Mozilla should use it unbundled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-4.0-0.19.rc1.fc15

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpmbuild firefox

Actual results:
configure: error: yasm is a required build tool for this architecture when webm is enabled. You may either install yasm or --disable-webm (which disables the WebM video format). See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/YASM for more details.
+
no dependency on libvpx.so

Expected results:
System libvpx.so in use.
BTW libvpx no longer needs yasm so it does not have to be a RHEL package.

This should be already resolved upstream (see linked bug). Why we don't have it in our builds?

Comment 2 Jan Kratochvil 2012-03-01 09:53:27 UTC
xulrunner already uses now: --with-system-libvpx

But both xulrunner and firefox still have:
BuildRequires:  yasm
I guess those can be dropped now.
