Precompiled package with LTO+PGO and langpacks are available on my repository on OBS.

Source files at: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/waterfox-g-kpe.

[home_hawkeye116477_waterfox_Arch]
Server = https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hawkeye116477:/waterfox/Arch/$arch

If you got 404, then temporarily try to replace download.opensuse.org with downloadcontent.opensuse.org. That should enforce direct download without mirror.

key=$(curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/Arch/$(uname -m)/home_hawkeye116477_waterfox_Arch.key)
fingerprint=$(gpg --quiet --with-colons --import-options show-only --import --fingerprint <<< "${key}" | awk -F: '$1 == "fpr" { print $10 }')

pacman-key --init
pacman-key --add - <<< "${key}"
pacman-key --lsign-key "${fingerprint}"
pacman -Sy home_hawkeye116477_waterfox_Arch/waterfox-g-kpe

Ditto with imdom, the python packages issue is preventing me from having a successful build, and currently on the look for a temporary workaround.

EDIT: @imdom just making sure: if you're indeed editing the PKGBUILD file of the two lines where MACH_BUILD_PYTHON_NATIVE_PACKAGE_SOURCE occurs to be pip, then what you have to do next (if you have paru) is to install via paru -Ui (or whatever the equivalent would be for your aur helper). It started building for me!

I'm having an issue installing - I've tried bill's advice below:

You probably need to permanently change export MACH_BUILD_PYTHON_NATIVE_PACKAGE_SOURCE=system to export MACH_BUILD_PYTHON_NATIVE_PACKAGE_SOURCE=pip`

But it still did not succeed. Here's the traceback:

Please add options=('!lto'). Actually if you enable LTO as default and building this browser, it results into a extreme RAM usage (60GB+). This is also happening at firefox, librewolf, ... .

Since devtools has LTO now as default in the config enabled, it should be explicitly disabled at PKGBUILD's which has issues when LTO is enabled in the makepkg.conf

to prevent version mismatch between system python and included python.

Well, with mach-depends.patch it should be working correctly, at least it works fine on OBS, on which I can't use pip.

You probably need to permanently change export MACH_BUILD_PYTHON_NATIVE_PACKAGE_SOURCE=system to export MACH_BUILD_PYTHON_NATIVE_PACKAGE_SOURCE=pip to prevent version mismatch between system python and included python. (Maybe there is a way to make it work, but I wasn't able to resolve all version mismatch.) Also the pip check is still crashing on my machine and unless you patch the source to disable crash reporting in certain places the build might unless succeed if you re-enable it in the mozconfig.

ac_add_options --disable-crashreporter

@brikler It's configured as unified build by default.

brikler commented on 2022-08-17 17:21 (UTC)

do you know jumbo build, or unity build? https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/build/buildsystem/unified-builds.html

a good explantion https://mesonbuild.com/Unity-builds.html

as example what unity build can do:

`ìcemon` as normal build
real    0m23,179s
user    1m12,184s
sys 0m2,491s

`ìcemon` as unity build
real    0m9,759s
user    0m22,916s
sys 0m0,904s

Cool Thanks

hawkeye116477 commented on 2022-06-26 12:27 (UTC)

@hawath It's already patched by Waterfox team.

W47MPUSv commented on 2022-06-26 03:25 (UTC)

Hi: A new patch might be necessary for a successful build now. Please see the following link: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1773630

Thanks
