Thanks to @libreleah 🫶, my stupid self is not using the corrupted fox anymore on #OpenBSD. The "stable-7.8" version of #Librewolf is a bit old but seem to work as expected.https://mas.to/@libreleah/116345551259228600

@joel You, comrade, have made my day. Thank you!I'm currently build-testing the latest LibreWolf on OpenBSD -CURRENT. Hopefully I'll have that working soon (build works perfectly on 7.8 with LibreWolf 143, as in your post, but I had problems the other day with 149 on -CURRENT / 7.9-snapshot).Hopefully I can get everything going and send a patch to ports team ready for 7.9 proper.

@joel I think the issue the other day is I had old toolchains / libs polluting the build, because I'd done full dependencies and everything on 7.8, and *then* updated to CURREENT.I re-did my OpenBSD install yesterday, this time on a proper RAID1c setup too, and only installed base, then immediately upgraded to -CURRENT.And I did not install anything in pkg_add. All I did was set up ports repo, and I'm running "make package".I think my port is OK on current. I just needed to purge it clean.

@joel the reason I used librewolf 143 on 7.8 is because firefox 143 is used on obsd 7.8. my port tracks www/mozilla-firefox. i'm doing it this way to keep patches and such in sync. to avoid duplication of labour.

@libreleah oh, ok. I wondered if this was due to some dependencies. I used to use ESR so I’m not really bothered with old versions :DI don’t do -snapshot in general so I would wait for 7.9 to come out before upgrading.

@joel that's fine, but port maintainers have to use -CURRENT. openbsd port maintenance happens in CURRENT, and they freeze it in a new branch per release.i started with 7.8 just to bootstrap my porting work. i probably should have just started straight from current.anyway, congrats for getting that to build. that build is brutal. it takes about 5 hours on my computer!

@libreleah yeah, got used to this. Only security patched get backported. I’m ok with that. The only time I used -snapshots was when Xfce 4.20 was ported. I couldn’t wait for the new Thunar features at that time 😅I have not mesured but it probably took like 2-3 hours here (AMD Ryzen with 8 cores @ 3 GHz). Not sure I have another spare laptop that has this power to test a -snapshot. 🤔

@joel i feel like maybe there should be a separate repository for users who want to install specific packages. a backport repo. i could maybe maintain one, but eh. too much work.openbsd does releases every 6 months so it's not too bad. not like debian for example, where you're stuck on the same browser version for two years.i actually did try to port 149 to 7.8, but 7.8 had a slightly too old version of rustc. on debian-stable i build it with rustup. is rustup available for openbsd?

@georgsassen @joel oh really? i don't have a 7.8 machine to test with at the moment, but i can try later.i just assumed they froze whatever what was in current at each release, and packages stayed static until the next release. notwithstanding bug fixes.

@georgsassen @joel since i'm only using current, i don't bother with cvs. i use the github mirror of ports, which matches cvs at whatever the current revision is. easier. i hate cvs.i will only use cvs when sending a patch. git can outpuut patch files in cvs format, so, happy days.but the github mirror just has a master branch matching the main branch from cvs.

@libreleah so, I did a few updates and tried compiling your master branch on the 7.8 port branch. Seems like rust version is ok but what is not is icu4c:checking for rustc... /usr/local/bin/rustcchecking for cargo... /usr/local/bin/cargochecking rustc version... 1.90.0checking cargo version... 1.90.0checking for rust host triplet... x86_64-unknown-openbsdchecking for rust target triplet... x86_64-unknown-openbsdchecking for rustdoc... /usr/local/bin/rustdocchecking for cbindgen... /usr/local/bin/cbindgenchecking for rustfmt... not foundchecking for clang for bindgen... /usr/ports/pobj/librewolf-149.0/bin/c++checking for libclang for bindgen... /usr/local/llvm21/lib/libclang.so.0.0checking that libclang is new enough... yeschecking bindgen cflags...

But... been there, done that... this impacts every other applications that rely on it... and there are quite a few here.# pkg_info -R icu4cInformation for inst:icu4c-77.1v0Required by:boost-1.87.0p0v0gspell-1.14.1harfbuzz-icu-12.1.0libical-3.0.20librewolf-143.0.3p1node-22.22.2v0orage-4.20.2qt6-qtbase-6.8.3p4qt6-qtwebengine-6.8.3p3qtbase-5.15.16pl130p0vlc-3.0.21p8vte3-0.80.4webkitgtk41-2.48.7p0So I guess trying to get Librewolf 149.0 on OpenBSD 7.8 means recompile a bunch of other software. Probably not worth the adventure when OpenBSD 7.9 should land quite soon now.

@joel openbsd releases every 6 months. just wait 6 months, or use CURRENT

@libreleah @joel Does this work as a drop-in replacement for Firefox?
