Created attachment 161441 [details] patch for mail/thunderbird I am trying to figure out how much of sparc64 builds these days. This port does not build and I would like permission to mark it BROKEN as I try to get a complete build. Thanks.
an attempt to raise the issue/get a fix -- see PR 186396
old thunderbird fix for sparc64 see PR 186580
Permission granted, though I would think this type of change would be covered under blanket approvals (or should be if it's not).
Comment on attachment 161441 [details] patch for mail/thunderbird Wouldn't the underlying issue affect all gecko@ ports with browser engine? mail/thunderbird uses same engine as www/firefox-esr. Also, I don't like the vague description. In case the issue is fixed upstream there's no way to discover or backport fix due to complete lack of details. Post a full build log that won't disappear in a year and/or fill in BROKEN with one line error excerpt.
(In reply to craig001 from comment #2) > old thunderbird fix for sparc64 see PR 186580 That fix was upstreamed years ago. Later sparc64 conditional migrated from Makefile.in to moz.build. https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/0688cd4ca145 https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/2b5237c178ea/xpcom/reflect/xptcall/md/unix/moz.build#259
