PKGBUILD has been updated. Major changes:

  • Downloads Firefox ESR and localization using the source array. Files are saved for reuse.
  • Saves freshly patched IceCat sources in a tarball for reuse.
  • Saves the PGO profile for reuse.

Notes:

  • Currently requires clang/llvm 17, which has to be built from AUR.
  • Wayland users, consider setting _build_pgo_xvfb=false. This will use xwayland-run for profiling.
  • PGO should work now, but if it doesn't and you're willing to go without, try _build_pgo=false.
  • Running out of RAM? Try adding mk_add_options MOZ_PARALLEL_BUILD=___ around line 300. Pick a value less than number of cores and free RAM in GB. For example, on a system with 8 cores, 64GB total RAM, but only 6 GB free, the value should be set to 4 or 5.
    • If a few people can confirm this is helpful, I will consider adding it as an additional option.
    • Main resource hog seems to be linking libxul.so. Leave a comment if you have a potential solution.

Having problems? Please provide details: processor make and model, number of cores, free -m, full log in pastebin, whether using AUR helper/makepkg/clean chroot, etc.

@chikker I think you are using _SPEED=y. Yeah? See that in PKGBUILD is hardcoded es-ES locale. You should change it to your locale, or you will see only spanish. Maybe I need to work on that to make it customizable to any locale...

@figue Weird. The bug seems to happen only when PKGBUILD in inside ~/.cache folder.

Hello. My build fails with "No such file or directory" because both FF source and .sig files somehow end up in my home directory. yay -S icecat output: https://paste.sr.ht/~holy/d33f10764380c7ff4466fc2c4dd8cbfb2f69edf8
