Unfortunately, it seems that the building tools are wrongly assuming that one should use Sun Studio to compile things. Has anyone success in building firefox with gcc? Ginn Chen from Oracle, post contributed TB/FF Builds to Mozilla 'contrib' dirs after releases and I think he now moved to GCC, to for newer Mozilla releases, because of some C++ problems. It is said he has patches he can share , that I don't know if they are included in Hipster. You can ask him. I would also like to be able to build Mozilla products and how to cook them. There is also an SeaMonkey application suite build, that I got from Mahomet (_David Mackay http://search.gmane.org/?author=David+Mackaysort=date_)in January (http://www.ulx.cc/assets/build/seamonkey-2.23.en-US.solaris2.11-i386.tar.bz2) but I didn't get source yet. I think they could be here: https://github.com/IRIXUser https://github.com/IRIXUser/mozilla-gate With one bug: https://github.com/IRIXUser/mozilla-gate/issues/1 He also worked on re-enabling lx (Linux) brand for zones, he used to run skype on.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Bash bug issue
The -07 version of the solaris 10 Oracle patch is from last monday. Seems to me it fixes all. But had little time to test it.

It is in Solaris 10. (And 11.) The test being used is flawed: env X=() { :;} ; echo busted /bin/sh -c echo completed The good news is that if you have a support contract, there is a Solaris 10 bash patch which seems to solve all the reported attack vectors (in my own testing). It took Oracle two patches to get things right. People found more bugs after the first patch went out. There are 6 CVE's for bash announced in the last week after all. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Engineering - http://blogs.oracle.com/alanc ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

If you check the comments printed by the tests, it looks like the failures seen on Solaris based OS are expected. Under OpenIndiana I saw some differences in output which may be due to small issues with internationalized character sets (locales). OpenIndiana uses different internationalization code than Solaris since it was written from scratch by the Illumos project. The bash I built (4.3.29) seems to be working fine for my purposes but I don't use bash as an interactive shell.
