hi

hi

can someone help me with compiling seamonkey 2.53.14

lemme show the issue i am having

0:26.17 ERROR: Cargo package manager 1.56.0 is too old. 0:26.17 0:26.17 To compile Rust language sources please install at least 0:26.17 version 1.57.0 of 'cargo' and make sure it is first in your path.

i can't seem to find a deb package for that version

distro is devuan (debian without system)

*systemd

using package cargo-mozilla

the package which is just called cargo is even older

if anyone wants more information, ask me

techsalt: no clue on that stuff, but ?maybe? some clues here ?, forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=6

searched for "cargo 1.57.0" and "cargo-mozilla"

for 1.57.0 there are no results

and for cargo-mozilla the results are unrelated to my issue

searched for "cargo too old" too

techsalt 1.56 is pretty old. Wonder how they compile Firefox. If the distribution does not provide a later rust and cargo uninstall both cargo and rust and checkout mozilla central. Using a mach bootstrap with mozilla-central should create a local build environent which works with the 2.53.14 sources.

Maybe better to use mozilla-esr102 and not get the bleeding edge stuff.

when i do mach bootstrap

i get this: CalledProcessError: Command '[u'sudo', u'apt-get', u'install', 'autoconf2.13', 'build-essential', 'python-dev', 'python-pip', 'python-setuptools', 'unzip', 'uuid', 'zip']' returned non-zero exit status 100

> Maybe better to use mozilla-esr102 and not get the bleeding edge stuff.

is there something like ESR for seamonkey?

techsalt The one in our source is too old. We are updating but not supported now. You need to get the Firefox esr102 sources.

alr

techsalt did you try to compile SM from source? if so there are a lot of components needed for compilation

yeah, trying to compile seamonkey from source

very brave ;-)

mostly to make it fit more to my install (use alsa, not pulse) and remove some features i don't need (no calendar/lightning)

I agree, in case of missing pulseaudio you could use apulse instead

i know about apulse but i would rather have it support alsa natively

i would only like to use apulse as last resort (proprietary program or can't compile with alsa)

I understand. here some components you will need for compilation. rust, gyp, mozilla-nss dev, python-psutil, notification-daemon is required too ....

btw. compilation of SM with alsa and without pulseaudio support is possible

i know

tho the current conflict rn seems to be cargo

Well not recommended:

ac_add_options --with-system-icu

ac_add_options --with-system-nspr

ac_add_options --with-system-nss

Fine now so remove:

# rust-simd does not compile with recent versions of rust.

# It is disabled in recent versions of firefox

ac_add_options --disable-rust-simd

so remove the line?

still have that error

about cargo

put the line back (with the lines you told to uncomment) and it will doesn't work

has nothing to do with the cargo error. Just that rust-simd works.

oh okay

just so you know

there is no error on rust, just cargo

is there some deb file for cargo 1.57.0 by the way

i wasn't able to find any

You can try lower the rust minimum version: xr.binaryoutcast.com/seamonkey-2.53…e/python/mozboot/mozboot/util.py#13

If it compiles should be ok.

If the rust package is 1.57 then the included cargo should be 1.57 too.

techsalt where is cargo installed? in case outside of default path add the path to the PATH variable and export before compilation launch.
