Re: Backports needed for Firefox/Thunderbird ESR 78 in Buster/Stretch

Was the build successful? Did you also try to build Thunderbird? Is 
there something else missing?


Thanks for your work in trying to get Firefox/Thunderbird ESR78 in 
buster.

Yes, the Firefox build was successful and my runtime tests have been good too.

We're working on fixing the toolchain on mips* now (thanks to Aurelien), but
other than that there shouldn't be anything missing at this point with the
recent upload of rust-cbindgen.

I haven't managed to bootstrap rustc 1.41 on armel, that's not an issue for
FF/TB as they can't build on armel due to the lack of nodejs, but it's a problem
for armel itself if at some point an update to rustc is needed (e.g. to fix a
security bug). If someone can help with that front, please see the rustc pu bug
(#970132) and get in touch.

I haven't looked at Thunderbird yet (see Carsten's message) but the toolchain
should be the same, so in that regard we should be good.

Cheers,
Emilio

for Thunderbird there is still some work to do, currently not related to
the work of Emilio. There wasn't any attempt from my side to merge the
unstable/testing tree into the buster related one until now. First I
need to get Thunderbird into unstable and hopefully soon to testing. If
there are no big problems to fix first then we can go on to work on
Thunderbird for Buster (and Stretch). Thunderbird is again suffering a
bit from a big API change for Add-ons as you might know. And as a lot of
users are using GPG for encryption we shouldn't make the migration to
the included OpenPGP support not harder as needed.

Vguitar is a MIDI instrument Guitar and is a tablature editor and can easily

existing ASCII tablature with some minor editing. Connect via ALSA to a 
synthesizer.  
Vguitar supports a six string guitar with standard and alternative tunings 
including  
relative, MIDI and Drop D tunings, supports box and strum modes.
  

  
VGuitar is extremely lightweight dependent only on libasound and ncurses. It is 
written in C++
and is easy to read and to build.   
  

  
* Providing similar functionality, how does it compare? 
  
only Vguitar is a unix tool rather than a monolithic windows application with 
menus.  
only Vguitar is term window based.  
  
only Vguitar supports alternate tunings, box and strum modes.   
  
only Vguitar is written in C++ and is only dependent on libasound and ncurses.  
  

  
** songwrite
  
   fairly easy to build python dependent on Lilypond and Tcl/Tk.
  
   easy learning curve  
  
** eTktab which is a guitar tablature editor written in Tcl/Tk, 
  
   simple   
  
   fairly easy to build (only depends on TCL/TK) source code bulky, hard to 
read. 
   no sound.
