By unmasking www-client/firefox-4.0.1 media-libs/libvpx-9999 and dev-lang/yasm-1.1.0-r1 I was able to build firefox 4.0.1. I use it just now and it's working fine... Here is the depgraph, if it can help... * dependency graph for www-client/firefox-4.0.1 `-- www-client/firefox-4.0.1 `-- sys-devel/binutils-2.20.1-r1 `-- dev-libs/nss-3.12.9-r1 `-- dev-libs/nspr-4.8.7 `-- dev-libs/glib-2.28.6 `-- >=media-libs/libpng-1.4.7[apng] (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- x11-libs/pango-1.28.3-r1 `-- dev-db/sqlite-3.7.6.2 [ system-sqlite ] `-- net-libs/xulrunner-2.0.1 `-- media-libs/libpng[apng] (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- media-libs/libpng[apng] (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- media-libs/libvpx-9999 [ webm ] `-- media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.23 [ webm ] `-- app-admin/eselect-python-20100321 `-- x11-libs/libXrender-0.9.6 `-- x11-libs/libXt-1.1.1 `-- x11-libs/libXmu-1.1.0 `-- sys-libs/zlib-1.2.5-r2 `-- app-arch/zip-3.0 `-- app-arch/unzip-6.0-r1 `-- app-text/hunspell-1.2.11 `-- dev-libs/expat-2.0.1-r3 `-- dev-libs/libIDL-0.8.14 `-- dev-libs/libevent-1.4.14b `-- x11-libs/cairo-1.10.2-r1 `-- x11-libs/gtk+-2.22.1-r1 `-- sys-libs/itx-bind (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- virtual/jpeg-0 (virtual/jpeg) `-- media-libs/libjpeg-turbo:0[static-libs?] (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.92 [ dbus ] `-- x11-libs/libnotify-0.7.2 [ libnotify ] `-- >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.90:3 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- x11-libs/startup-notification-0.10 [ startup-notification ] `-- net-wireless/wireless-tools-29-r1 [ wifi ] `-- >=media-libs/libpng-1.4.7[apng] (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- dev-util/pkgconfig-0.25-r2 `-- dev-lang/yasm-1.1.0-r1 [ webm ] `-- sys-apps/sed-4.2.1 `-- dev-lang/python-2.7.1-r1 `-- sys-libs/db:4.8 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- sys-libs/db:4.4 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- sys-libs/db:4.8 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- sys-libs/db:4.4 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- sys-devel/automake-1.11.1 `-- sys-devel/autoconf-2.13 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: N/A
I think yasm is an incorrect dependency for libvpx/firefox, but it's great to know that Firefox 4 works on PowerPC! Thanks for testing.
I meant www-client/firefox-4.0-r3 vp8 video are playing on youtube, albeit painfully slowly (makes it unusable for me : 1 key frame / 5s or something). I'm building 4.0.1 now. Will report back when it's done.
