You may either install yasm or --disable-webm (which disables the WebM video format). See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/YASM for more details. But the webm is disabled, see attached build.log. I have looked in the /var/tmp/portage/www-client/seamonkey-2.14-r1/work/comm-release/mozilla/configure. I suspect the culprit is MOZ_WEBRTC. It is set on by default and it also sets MOZ_VP8. MOZ_NATIVE_LIBVPX is empty due to --disable-system-libvpx (-webm). If MOZ_VP8 is set and MOZ_NATIVE_LIBVPX is empty then VPX_X86_ASM is set. VPX_AS is empty because yasm is not installed. VPX_X86_ASM set and VPX_AS empty cause the error. I have hacked the mozconfig-3.eclass and added the line mozconfig_annotate '' --disable-webrtc after the line with --disable-webm. The configure runs OK. (Later I got a compilation error with ogg missing vorbis but that is probably not related to this bug.) Maybe we need a new USE flag for webrtc? Enabling webrtc shall also enabled system-libvpx?
Anarchy, what do you think? Is a change of mozconfig-3.eclass required in this case?
(In reply to comment #1) > Anarchy, what do you think? Is a change of mozconfig-3.eclass required in > this case? Alsa and webm are gonna be force enabled soon as we move to fx-17/tb-17 stable esr releases. At that point it wont make a difference yasm will be required.
Even if yasm is installed the failure is predictable, gonna mark appropriately where I am working things out already. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 433930 ***
