Created attachment 832759 [details] fix for AArch64 architecture Description of problem: During the initial build of packages on the ARM (Aarch64) architecture, xulrunner failed to build. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all of them How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: Attempt to build package on Aarch64 system Actual results: configure: error: can not guess host type; you must specify one Additional info: Attached patch updates all copies of gnu-config files, updates internal copy of libffi to have AArch64 support and do all what is needed to get buildable version of xulrunner.
We need to propagate the patch upstream, at bugzilla.mozilla.org.
I have half of patch upstreamed already, few other parts are waiting in a queue.

Created attachment 868490 [details] full changeset to add AArch64 support to firefox 27/rawhide - v0227 All our AArch64 patches went upstream. The only one left is libffi update where all we can do is watching how they go with update (which is now in testing). Xulrunner may use same patchset.
Great! When majority of the patches hit released upstream package we can enable the AArch64 patches in Fedora - I guess it's Firefox 29 or Firefox 30. Good work!
