Hi Wolfgang, ajs124,

Thank you both for writing to let us know. We will keep the schedule as-is to avoid any breakage then.

Best wishes,
Dennis


For us (red hat). It's particularly true for ESR, so please don't try to Jam 3.80 into Firefox ESR. I've already started the 3.79 integration train, in which I have to release 3.79 on several versions of RHEL (with various integration issues) in order for our Firefox team to be able to pick up the ESR in a timely manner.

Thanks,

bob

(Also it would be good to make sure https://wiki.mozilla.org/NSS:Release_Versions is up-to-date).

    This might be/would have been an issue for us at nixpkgs/NixOS,
    where I
    co-maintain the nss package.

    Updating nss means a very large rebuild, because unlike regular
    distributions (as far as I know/remember at least) we rebuild
    everything
    once a build input changes. So because e.g. libblockdev depends on
    nss,
    we rebuild a few thousand packages for every nss update.

    This would and did sometimes mean delaying Firefox updates. Although
    now we've split the package into nss_esr and nss_latest. We only use
    nss_latest for Firefox, Thunderbird and extracting CA certificates
    from, while nss_esr is used for everything else.

    Maybe some other distros, e.g. GuixSD are in the same boat.
