It doesn't build here; I get a few errors, thus: 9:41.58 ../../build/unix/gold/ld: error: /var/tmp/portage/www-client/ palemoon-27.6.2/work/palemoon-27.6.2/o/toolkit/library/../../media/ libstagefright/Unified_cpp_media_libstagefright0.o: requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '_Z13GetDemuxerLogv' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC 9:41.58 ../../build/unix/gold/ld: error: read-only segment has dynamic relocations 9:41.58 /var/tmp/portage/www-client/palemoon-27.6.2/work/palemoon-27.6.2/ media/libstagefright/binding/MoofParser.cpp:767: error: undefined reference to 'GetDemuxerLog()' ... ERROR: www-client/palemoon-27.6.2::palemoon failed (compile phase) This is after upgrading to the 17.0 plasma profile, as instructed in the news item. Does it warrant a bug report? -- Regards, Peter.
