If you have issues with this package visit gitlab and read the readme first.

You have to build the package yourself, the repo is outdated. I will replace it in the future.

I added the repo to pacman.conf and wanted to install the firefox using sudo pacman -S firefox-kde-opensuse . It gave me dependency errors:

warning: can't resolve "libicuuc.so=72-64", dependency from "firefox-kde-opensuse" warning: can't resolve "libicui18n.so=72-64", dependency from "firefox-kde-opensuse" warning: can't resolve "libvpx.so=7-64", dependency from "firefox-kde-opensuse"

I'm on Manjaro testing, so close to Arch (a few days away from Arch stable repo), so I don't think this is it. Just to be sure, I switched to unstable to get the same packages as Arch stable and the issue is still there.

I checked libicuuc.so versions and I have either too high (native system) or too low (snaps, flatpacks) version. Those in between are merely a symlinks. So does this mean, that this package simply requires older libraries than exist on Arch or Manjaro testing/unstable?

EDIT: I just realized, that in the repo we have a very old version 107. The newer one is here in AUR, but I can't pass the SUM check on firefox 117 source file... It looks like the PKGBUILD wasn't fully updated.

@Thaodan the same error that was reported by @melvyn2 here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firefox-kde-opensuse?O=10#comment-872633

EDIT: Also on a sidenote - you mentioned "Use tarball instead of hg sources" in your releasenotes But the PKGBUILD still seems to be using hg. Just FYI incase you missed anything

Thaodan commented on 2023-03-25 01:04 (UTC)

@Thaodan, thanks. I had to slightly edit the PKGBUILD to make it work though:

https://github.com/DroidFreak32/firefox-kde-opensuse/commit/c75734423fa3a77bdc9548c30a14cfd5bd439a94

thanks for fixing my typos, I'll amend the commit. Can you give me logs when using system python packages? On SUSE this just worked fine.

A wip update can be found here now: https://gitlab.com/Thaodan/firefox-kde-opensuse/-/commit/a4ae66b6b28607dd7bec51cae73300552ec8fafd

Update to 111.0-1

  • New upstream release
  • Use tarball instead of hg sources
  • Restructure patching process
    • All patches are checked into git and then applied on top of the existing Mozilla sources. Doing so allows rebasing of patches to be done by a simple git rebase, all patches cherry-picked from upstream are then automatically excluded upon updating.
    • Rebase patch-set based on OpenSUSE patches, updates to the package will be faster this way.
    • The sources can be found here: https://github.com/Thaodan/gecko-dev The branches are split of from the mozilla 'release' branch that is set to the latest release version into release/$major.$minor.x and then the thaodan/release/$major.$minor.x branch is rebased upon that.
    • Remove other obsolete patches
  • Drop obsolete kde.js, it was removed in the OpenSUSE patches long ago, is redundant and doesn't function anymore. boo#1151186 https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1151186

I have compiled this version against arch packages as of today here: https://github.com/DroidFreak32/firefox-kde-opensuse/releases Only change in the PKGBUILD i have made is

export MACH_BUILD_PYTHON_NATIVE_PACKAGE_SOURCE=pip
