- move debian/extract-file.py to debian/build/extract-file.py
- update debian/rules
- move debian/testsuite.mk to debian/build/testsuite.mk

- remove debian/patches/lp185622_system_path_default_browser.patch
- remove debian/patches/bz386904_config_rules_install_dist_files.patch

- update debian/patches/reload-new-plugins.patch
- update debian/patches/plugin-for-mimetype-pref.patch

- update debian/patches/allow-lockPref-everywhere.patch
- update debian/patches/distro-locale-searchplugins.patch
- update debian/patches/ubuntu-bookmarks.patch
* Shrink the default mozconfig right down so that we use mostly upstream
defaults, rather than overriding them with our own options. It is still
possible to override them though. We also drop the pkg-config checks in
debian/rules which allowed a fallback build configuration when dependencies
aren't satisfied. Really, the build should just fail here rather than
continuing in some undesirable fallback mode
- update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
- update debian/firefox-dev.links.in
- update debian/mozconfig.in
- update debian/pkgconfig/libxul.pc.in
- update debian/control.in
- update debian/rules
* Refresh build-depends, as this hasn't been done for a while:
- Drop patchutils, libxft-dev, libxinerama-dev, libgnome2-dev and bzip2.
These aren't needed
- Drop liborbit2-dev - only required if there is no libidl
- Add libglib2.0-dev, libext-dev, libfontconfig1-dev and libpango1.0-dev,
as the configure script checks for these directly
- Add minimum versions to libgconf2-dev, libgnomevfs2-dev, yasm and
libgnomeui-dev
- Specify minimum versions for libnspr4-dev, libcairo2-dev, libsqlite3-dev
and libnss3-dev when using system versions of those libs
* Introduce a branch config file (debian/config/branch.mk) which holds
settings which shouldn't be merged between branches (eg, whether
the crash reporter should be enabled)
- add debian/config/branch.mk
- update debian/rules
* Move debian/locales.* to debian/config
- move debian/locales.shipped => debian/config/locales.shipped
- move debian/locales.unavail => debian/config/locales.unavail
- move debian/locales.blacklist => debian/config/locales.blacklist
- update debian/rules
- update debian/build/refresh-supported-locales.pl
* Don't open about:blank from the New Window quicklist entry
- update debian/firefox.desktop.in
* Touch debian/control.in during clean to force a refresh of debian/control,
so we can check if it is out-of-date and fail if it is
- update debian/rules
* Drop the mozilla-devscripts dependency. We were only using this for creating
tarballs anyway. Instead, implement our own get-orig-source target, which
also fixes some problems we were having
- update debian/control.in
- remove debian/moz-rev.sh
- update debian/rules
- remove debian/mozclient/firefox.mk
- remove debian/mozclient/firefox.conf
- update debian/config/branch.mk
- add debian/build/create-source
- add debian/build/get-orig-source.mk
* Lots of workflow improvements for dealing with language packs:
- update debian/rules
- add debian/build/extract-file.py
- add debian/build/dump-langpack-control-entries.pl
- update debian/build/refresh-supported-locales.pl
- add debian/config/locales.all
- update debian/config/locales.shipped
- remove debian/config/locales.unavailable
- update debian/control
- update debian/build/create-tarball.py
* Turn off the one-time addon selection dialog (LP: #888307)
- update debian/vendor.js
* Add Mongolian and Swahili to locale blacklist. These aren't meant to be
built on the release channel, but they still appear in the upstream
shipped-locales
- update debian/locales.blacklist
* Rewrite the apport hook to be more useful
- update debian/apport/firefox.py.in
* Ship a file in /etc/apport/native-origins.d to enable bug reporting
on PPA branches
- add debian/apport/native-origins.in
- rename debian/apport/firefox.in => debian/apport/blacklist.in
- update debian/rules
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/firefox.dirs.in
* Update the apport blacklist file now that the binary name has changed
- update debian/apport/firefox.in
* Look in the correct location for the staged langpack xpi's. They moved
from dist/install to dist/linux-$(DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU)
- update debian/rules
* Simplify firefox-dev.install a bit by installing everything in
/usr/include
- update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
* Handle video/webm mimetypes
- update debian/firefox.desktop.in
* Fix check-sync-dirs.py test failure - ensure config/system-headers and
js/src/config/system-headers are kept in sync
- update debian/patches/unity-globalmenu-build-support-patch
* Fix browserGlue_distribution.js and browserGlue_smartBookmarks.js xpcshell
test failures. Update DEFAULT_BOOKMARKS_ON_MENU with the correct number of
default bookmarks
- update debian/patches/ubuntu-bookmarks.patch
* Fix jsreftest failures by setting the correct timezone and locale
- update debian/testsuite.mk
* Switch off debian/patches/fix-selection-drag-autoscroll.patch for now. It
doesn't apply and needs a rethink
- update debian/patches/series
* Fix "format not a string literal and no format arguments" error
- add debian/patches/printf-fix.patch
- update debian/patches/series
* Update for the binary name change
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/firefox.sh.in
* Ensure we install dependentlibs.list so that Firefox knows which libs
to dlopen before libxul
- update debian/firefox.install.in
* Get rid of some more hanging IPC xpcshell tests
- update debian/testsuite.mk
* Now Firefox lazy loads libxul, drop the LD_LIBRARY_PATH hack from the
shell wrapper (LP: #561124)
- update debian/firefox.sh.in
* Only install channel-prefs.js on aurora/beta, where we need it for
Test Pilot. We don't set a channel name on other branches anyway, so we
just end up with a nonsense channel name ("default") appearing in the
About dialog
- update debian/rules
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/apport/firefox.py.in
* Don't error out whilst creating the source package if mozilla-devscripts
or cdbs aren't installed. This enables us to create source packages
on machines which don't have these available
- update debian/rules
- update debian/mozclient/firefox.mk
* Unconditionally build with --disable-elf-hack. It's basically a noop
on Ubuntu, as we don't get any of the nice space saving and startup
time improvements that upstream builds get with it. Enabling it is
problematic (it fails to build on all architectures in Ubuntu from
Firefox 7 onwards, and is problematic on armel when building on
older Ubuntu versions)
- update debian/rules
- update debian/mozconfig.in
* Don't unconditionally set -fshort-wchar in the libxul.pc pkgconfig file.
It's no longer needed with newer toolchains which support gnu++0x, and
defining it breaks the mozvoikko build
- update debian/pkgconfig/libxul.pc.in
- update debian/rules
* Drop the profile migrator, as it doesn't really make any sense with the new
release cycle. In Firefox 7, we want to drop the shell wrapper script
anyway
- remove debian/migrator/xulapp-profilemigrator
- update debian/firefox.sh.in
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/rules
- update debian/control.in
* xpt_link and xpt_dump have been replaced by xpt.py
- update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
- update debian/firefox-dev.links.in
* Add support for the system provided hyphenation patterns, by linking
@MOZ_LIBDIR@/hyphenation to /usr/share/hyphen
- update debian/firefox.links.in
* Drop the special "kde.js" file handling from the pref service. It hasn't
had the desired effect since Firefox 4, as the specialfile handling
doesn't apply to pref files inside the omni.jar. Moving kde.js back in to
defaults/pref isn't an option, as these are always read after the prefs
in the omni.jar, which would mean that all users would get the KDE
specific prefs. Note, we only override one pref in kde.js anyway, it can
go elsewhere if really required
- update debian/patches/mozilla-kde.patch
- update debian/patches/firefox-kde.patch
- note, this doesn't change any behaviour from Firefox 4 and 5, but the
code this patch touched was rewritten in Firefox 6, so it makes more
sense to just remove it now rather than refactor it and it stil not work
* Drop abrowser. The abrowser branding doesn't work since Firefox 4, and
is going to be difficult to maintain going forwards. The Firefox logo
is freely licensed now, which was the main reason for the existance of
abrowser. Current abrowser users will be migrated to Firefox
- remove debian/abrowser.desktop
- update debian/control
- update debian/rules
- remove debian/ubuntu-abrowser.js.tmpl
- remove debian/patches/awesome_browser_branding_install.patch
- update debian/patches/series
- remove debian/patches/browser_branding.patch
- remove debian/patches/abrowser_run_mozilla.patch
* Auto-generate debhelper and other files at build-time
- rename debian/firefox.dirs => debian/firefox.dirs.in
- rename debian/firefox.install => debian/firefox.install.in
- rename debian/firefox.links => debian/firefox.links.in
- rename debian/firefox.menu => debian/firefox.menu.in
- rename debian/firefox.xml => debian/firefox.xml.in
- rename debian/firefox-gnome-support.install =>
debian/firefox-gnome-support.install.in
- rename debian/apport/firefox.py => debian/apport/firefox.py.in
- rename debian/firefox-restart-required.update-notifier =>
debian/firefox-restart-required.update-notifier.in
- add debian/firefox-mozsymbols.in
- update debian/firefox.dirs.in
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/firefox.links.in
- update debian/firefox.menu.in
- update debian/firefox-gnome-support.install.in
- update debian/apport/firefox.py.in
- update debian/firefox-restart-required.update-notifier.in
* Update apport hook to work with packed extensions
- update debian/apport/firefox.py.in
* Drop firefox-gnome-support maintainer scripts, as they aren't needed
now. Touching .autoreg on install doesn't do anything, and registering
the gnome-www-browser alternative has moved to firefox
- remove debian/firefox-gnome-support.postinst.in
- remove debian/firefox-gnome-support.prerm.in
- update debian/firefox.postinst.in
- update debian/firefox.prerm.in
* Tidy up the branding selection to auto-select based on the channel.
Also drop obsolete desktop files
- update debian/rules
- remove debian/firefox-minefield.desktop
- remove debian/firefox-namoroka.desktop
* Build language packs directly from the firefox source
+ Fixes LP: #294187 - Firefox Locales should install locale specific
search plugins
+ Rip out the bits to create a en-US.xpi
- update debian/rules
- remove debian/translation-support/install.rdf.in
+ Include compare-locales FIREFOX_5_0b1_BUILD1 from
http://hg.mozilla.org/build/compare-locales. It's needed for merging
en-US strings with incomplete locales
+ Pull l10n data in to tarball from bzr
- update debian/mozclient/firefox.conf
+ Configure build for creating language packs by configuring with
"--with-l10n-base="
- update debian/mozconfig.in
+ Store the list of locales to ship, and provide a way of automatically
generating that list and the control file entries from the upstream
source. Also provide a way to blacklist languages. We map languages
to package names using langpack-o-matic (and also get descriptions
from there too)
- update debian/rules
- add debian/locales.shipped
- add debian/control.langpacks
- update debian/control.in
- add debian/locale.blacklist
- add debian/refresh-supported-locales.pl
+ Add common-build-indep hook to build the translation xpi's
- update debian/rules
+ Add common-binary-post-install-indep to install the xpi's and
searchplugins in to the correct debian packages
- update debian/rules
- add debian/get-xpi-id.py
+ When rebuilding debian/control in the clean target, fail the build
if the control file was out-of-date. This ensures that we don't
accidentally drop language packs, and forces me to maintain an
up-to-date control file in bzr
- update debian/rules
+ Apply vendor patches to localized searchplugins too
- update debian/patches/ubuntu-codes-amazon.patch
- add debian/patches/ubuntu-codes-baidu.patch
- update debian/patches/ubuntu-codes-google.patch
+ Add languages that are currently dropped in FF5 (compared with FF3.6) to
locales.unavailable. Having transitional packages now will make
transitioning easier later on if they come back
- add debian/locales.unavailable
* Build with "make -f client.mk" and using a mozconfig, rather than the
autoconf/configure/make steps used previously. The client.mk contains the
sequencing for doing PGO builds
- add debian/mozconfig.in
- update debian/rules
* Prevent LP: #643899 - Firefox sending header "Accept-Language:
chrome://global/locale/intl.properties" because the intl.accept_languages
preference is messed up. Drop a patch which causes the preferences
system to save a user preference when changing a preference value to equal
the system default value (and revert to the original behaviour where the
preference is just discarded). This should hopefully stop Firefox Sync
from breaking localized preferences where they haven't been modified by
the user, but does regress LP: #548866
- update debian/patches/series
* Prevent LP: #744580 - Firefox doesn't autoscroll when selecting content
downwards
- add debian/patches/fix-selection-drag-autoscroll.patch
- update debian/patches/series
* Run the Mozilla test suite at build time. Test-suite failures won't
break the build just yet
- add debian/testsuite.mk
- update debian/rules
- update debian/control.in
* Build using the versioned yasm-1 binary backported to Lucid
- add debian/patches/use-new-yasm-in-lucid.patch
- update debian/patches/series
- update debian/control.in
- refresh debian/control
* Add a firefox-dev package. We need this for mozvoikko
- update debian/control.in
- add debian/firefox-dev.install.in
- add debian/firefox-dev.links.in
- add debian/pkgconfig/libxul.pc.in
- add debian/pkgconfig/mozilla-nspr.pc.in
- add debian/pkgconfig/mozilla-plugin.pc.in
- update debian/rules
- refresh debian/control
- update debian/patches/series
[ Brian Murray <brian@xxxxxxxxxx> ]
* Fix LP: #758111 - update ubuntulinux.org bookmark - thanks to Jonathan
Rothwell for the patch
[ Micah Gersten <micahg@xxxxxxxxxx> ]
* Add patch from upstream to fix PowerPC FTBFS (bmo: 703534) aka
Build failure on platforms without YARR JIT
- add debian/patches/fix-build-failure-without-yarr-jit.patch
- update debian/patches/series

Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
starting with openjdk/icedtea-1.7, a NSS based security provider is
supported by icedtea.
The firefox start script in MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
include MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME and a number of subdirectories of
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME. The current NSS provider code seems to honor
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and loads the libnss3.so provided by the browser.
Caused by: java.io.IOException: An incompatible version of NSS is already loaded, 3.7 or later required
at sun.security.pkcs11.Secmod.isInitialized(Secmod.java:130)
at sun.security.pkcs11.SunPKCS11.<init>(SunPKCS11.java:168)
(wondering why the nss version shipped with firefox 3.6.3 identifies
itself as 3.7).
However the openjdk build is configured for the nss version configured
at build time, and you can run it with more than one browser, so it
makes sense to use the libnss version which was detected at openjdk
build time.
My current solution/workaround is to pass a modified LD_LIBRARY_PATH
to the subprocess such that the libnss3.so which was configured at
build time is always used.
The setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the run-mozilla.sh start script may
be convenient, but it does break plugins which are built to be
independent of the browser used.
Things to do on the browser side:
- why does firefox use it's own outdated libnss copy, and doesn't use the system nss3?
- why does the nss shipped with firefox identifies itself with 3.7?
- the firefox startup script should not set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but search itself for libs
in known places.
for a proposed workaround for the icedtea6-plugin to work with this
broken plugin, see
http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=461
