Description Alexey Spiridonov 2006-03-29 12:14:27 UTC

The patchset/build sequence in the source ebuild for thunderbird 1.5 trigger (or create) some bugs that are not in the mainline mozilla-thunderbird-bin. This bug attempts to tally these.

Here are some that I found (the first two, I've been able to reproduce on the source, but not the binary version):

1) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331216
(see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247896 for more info)
2) http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126344
3) http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127695

My source version was built from the 1.5-r1 ebuild with:

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-pipe -march=pentium-m -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse \
        -O2"
CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fvisibility-inlines-hidden"
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1"

Given these 3 data-loss bugs, I think it may be wise to hard-mask mozilla-thunderbird-1.5* (but not mozilla-thunderbird-bin-1.5) until the culprit is found.

Is invalid already been addressed and corrected in our tree.

Myself and others are still unable to reproduce the problem.

Yet Again unable to reproduce the problem. But leaning toward problems with system.

Your CXXFLAGS allow me to close any bug invalid or wont fix ( i.e -fvisibility-inlines-hidden is not supported )

So until someone has a more precise method of reproducing last two issues I am not gonna mask thunderbird-1.5 source compile.
