v174 v175 45 45 ''If you need to build rustc-1.70.0, that requires LLVM >= 14. LLVM-16.0.5 builds ok with (at least) gcc-11.2.0 from BLFS-11.1.'' 46 46 47 The minimum version of node-js has now been updated to v12.22.1, unfortunately that fell out of support in April of this year, v14, v16 and v18 have had vulnerability fixes since then.47 The minimum version of node-js has now been updated to v12.22.1, that old out of support version is apparently still used on old debian which might be what some of the build-bots at mozilla use. You should use a supported version of node-js, updated as necessary to fix its vulnerabilities. 48 48 49 49 … … 55 55 56 56 57 == Dependencies for 11 8.0 series (latest upstream stable) ==57 == Dependencies for 119.0 series (latest upstream stable) == 58 58 59 59 Changed dependencies since 115.0: 60 60 61 nss >= 3.93.0 61 cbindgen now needs to be >= 0.26.0 62 63 nss >= 3.94.0 62 64 63 65 Mozilla are experimenting with bundling icu4x.[https://github.com/unicode-org/icu4x] … … 65 67 66 68 67 There has been a lot of change in the shipped ICU4X code between 117.0 and 118.0b1. For the moment, system icu remains available and gives a faster(+1.3 SBU using 8 jobs) and smaller build (icu4x adds 97 MB to the build directory and 17 MB to the install)- tested with rustc-1.71.1 and cbindgen-0.24.3.69 There was a lot of change in the shipped ICU4X code between 117.0 and 118.0b1. For the moment, system icu remains available and gives a faster(+1.3 SBU using 8 jobs) and smaller build (icu4x adds 97 MB to the build directory and 17 MB to the install)- that was tested with rustc-1.71.1 and cbindgen-0.24.3 with firefox-118. 68 70 69 The release notes talk about translation on the local machine, AFAICS that requires building with WASM.71 The release notes for 118 talk about translation on the local machine, AFAICS that requires building with WASM. 70 72 71 73 = Sandboxing == … … 75 77 For the moment, g++ can be used if you pass --without-wasm-sandboxed-libraries but the changes in gcc-12 mean that the book has moved to using clang++, still without wasm. 76 78 77 == Dependencies for 1 19.0beta ==79 == Dependencies for 120.0beta == 78 80 79 cbindgen now needs to be >= 0.26.0. 81 To Be Advised 80 82 81 nss >= 3.9482 83 83 84 84 The early betas for 92.0 and 93.0 needed static libstdc++.a to link logalloc-replay (that specifies -static-libstdc++). In later betas that was not compiled. While using a static system lib (outside of rust) is annoying, the expected lifetime of a firefox beta is short and this requirement can be remembered if a vulnerability in libstdc++ is ever disclosed. I assume this requirement will continue for early betas (those where EARLY_BETA_OR_EARLIER is defined in build/defines.sh).
