Iceweasel FTBFS on Alpha. Build log is at:
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=iceweasel&arch=alpha&ver=8.0-3&stamp=1320898779
The following tweaks are all that are needed to build a working iceweasel.
Please add the following to the patch
"Add-mips-hppa-ia64-s390-and-sparc-defines-in-ipc-chr.patch":
#elif defined(__s390__)
#define ARCH_CPU_S390 1
#define ARCH_CPU_32_BITS 1
+#elif defined(__alpha__)
+#define ARCH_CPU_ALPHA 1
+#define ARCH_CPU_64_BITS 1
#else
#error Please add support for your architecture in build/build_config.h
#endif
There remains a bug in the linker (binutils) that is causing problems to
large C++ projects and to get a working iceweasel full optimisation
needs to be disabled. Please add into debian/rules the following:
ifneq (,$(filter alpha,$(DEB_BUILD_ARCH)))
CONFIGURE_FLAGS += --enable-optimize=-O1
endif
Thanks,
Michael Cree.
