Hello Adrian, i have read through the sbuild page and it is very long and looks very complicated and not tailored to a sparc64 machine. Is really everything on that page needed to get it running?
I tried to follow this page instead to build the package: https://wiki.debian.org/BuildingTutorial But i here i am unable to solve the build dependencies for firefox-62.0.3 on my install: dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: python-minimal (>= 2.6.6-13~) llvm-6.0-dev libclang-6.0-dev clang-6.0 These are not available from the current repo and fetching from snapshot leads to dependency conflicts: root@SunUltra25:/work/firefox62/build# dpkg -i python-minimal_2.7.17-2_sparc64.deb Selecting previously unselected package python-minimal. (Reading database ... 281832 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack python-minimal_2.7.17-2_sparc64.deb ... Unpacking python-minimal (2.7.17-2) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-minimal: python-minimal depends on python2-minimal (= 2.7.17-2); however: Version of python2-minimal on system is 2.7.18-3. python3-six (1.16.0-2) breaks python-minimal (<< 2.7.18) and is installed.

Version of python-minimal to be configured is 2.7.17-2. I am unsure on how to proceed.
