Bug 865665 – dev-lang/spidermonkey-102.1.0: Consider temporarily masking

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Martin Rapavý 2022-08-18 07:08:46 UTC]

This release is probably not needed by other packages at this time. It will be used by the upcoming GNOME 43, however, this release is unsuitable, because it is rather faulty, because it does not contain the file ProfilingCategoryList.h, which the header file js/ProfilingCategory.h tries to include, but fails including it, and with it the whole build against this release of SpiderMonkey fails (for instance, in the case of building gjs-1.73.2).

Thus, if you plan to rely on this version of SpiderMonkey, you will either need to patch it yourself:
https://discourse.gnome.org/t/gnome-43-to-depend-on-spidermonkey-102/10658
or wait for the next release - version 102.2.0:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1776254
which should already contain this fix:
https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/rev/eb2b21f037a5
.

Please include the full build.log & emerge --info of whatever failure you end up seeing for completeness.

Yeah, _nothing_ depends on spidermonkey:102 right now. I'm pretty sure 102.2.0 will be out before gnome-43 but we can just ship the patch already for 102.1.0.

Created attachment 800081 [details]
dev-libs/gjs build.log

Installing js/ProfilingCategoryList.h is a nice easy fix, but there are additional problems that prevent dev-libs/gjs from building.

This is what happens now.
