[Bug 1490995] Re: Firefox 40 ftbfs on powerpc in wily

 

I'm fine with us not caring about powerpc.  But the way things are now,
it's blocking Firefox 40 from landing on x86/amd64 as well.

Title:
  Firefox 40 ftbfs on powerpc in wily

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This ftbfs error is preventing 40 from hitting the release pocket.
  It's stuck in proposed right now.

  powerpc.firefox_40.0.3%2Bbuild1-0ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz

  Seems to an error like so:

  /usr/include/c++/5/bits/atomic_base.h:477: undefined reference to `__atomic_compare_exchange_8'
  /usr/include/c++/5/bits/atomic_base.h:477: undefined reference to `__atomic_compare_exchange_8'
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  make[6]: *** [TestAtomics] Error 1

  Which would make me think a missing -latomic somewhere.  But looking
  at the source, it wasn't clear to me how TestAtomics or other tests
  were getting passed their LDFLAGS.
