Subject: | [Bug-gnuzilla] Building Icecat |

Hi all, I know macOS isn't a high priority platform, but I wanted to give the new version of Icecat a shot. I've used the instructions for building Icecat on macOS successfully for previous versions: https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:IceCat/Compile_and_package/build_52.6.0_on_macOS So, naturally I went for it using the same instructions with the current version (60.3.0 as of writing). First there was a complaint that rust was not installed, so I installed rust using the suggested method of using rustup.rs Next there was an issue finding LLVM, so I installed LLVM using Homebrew. After this the make process completed successfully so I ran make package. Naturally it failed, throwing a bunch of errors like: Missing file(s): /IceCat.app/Contents/MacOS/browser/extensions/address@hidden/ Also, there is this final few lines: mozpack.errors.AccumulatedErrors make[3]: *** [stage-package] Error 1 make[2]: *** [make-package] Error 2 make[1]: *** [default] Error 2 make: *** [package] Error 2 I tried the entire process a couple times, and did a little searching for the meaning of the errors, before I was ready to give up. When I went to change my default browser, it showed Icecat 60.3.0 as the current default! So here I am with Icecat 60.3.0 working on my Mac, in spite of the errors during make package. As some of you could probably guess, I'm stuck running this app out of the /dist folder. Any thoughts on what is happening, and why I'm able to run the app in spite of the errors seen? |
