Here's a heads up for people doing local Mac builds of Firefox, and possibly also some who manage automated builds:
As of the patch for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=941296, which landed on the trunk early this morning, you can no longer build with the OS X 10.6 SDK. Instead you must specify the 10.7 SDK or later (or no SDK at all). I think this means we can no longer build on OS X 10.6 -- which isn't a big deal, because I don't believe that's been possible since we switched to using clang by default (instead of gcc/g++), at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733905. Firefox should still run on OS X 10.6 (SnowLeopard) -- which is good, since about a third of our Mac users are still on it. But we need to keep an eye out for problems. Our policy has long been to build with the SDK of our lowest supported version of OS X, as insurance against incompatibilities that Apple might introduce in later versions of OS X (and later SDKs). But this (probably) isn't an absolute requirement. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
