#167 — Error compiling on i686

I am getting errors. This is the first of many.

Compiling is only supported on x64. For i686 you need to install the i686 libs 
and the rust i686 target <and put the right compile target in the mozconfig. 
Rust 1.47 is supported. Anything from 1.38 to 1.46 might work but is untested.

You might get over the error with -disable-rust-simd

Thanks, I got a long way with that. But it failed during linking.

 From what I've read elsewhere, Seamonkey levels starting 2.53.6 require 
Rust >= 1.47 to build.  There is no such requirement for execution.
The reason I asked what distribution you were using is that the one I 
use (not Debian) may be about to move from Rust 1.43.1 for just this 
reason, then you would have had the option of waiting.

Did you get that from these minutes?

https://wiki.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/StatusMeetings/2021-04-18

"Compilers have been updated for building the official versions starting
with 2.53.7b1

"rust 1.47.0 is used for all releases."

This doesn't say it is a minimum requirement, just that these versions
have been used in official builds. That's the way I am reading it
anyway. I am not building an official build. I am just trying to make
one which works. I think the problem I am having is due to SS2
instructions. Hopefully the disable-rust-simd will solve it as far as I
can tell this is supposed to make rust platform independent.

The minimum version is 1.38 which is enforced but it might not work. If this 
does not work I will probably set it to 1.47 to align with official builds.

We needed to fix some new breakage with rust 1.52 and the minimum rust version 
of 2.53.8 will be 1.47.

Thunderbird and firefox are both working. I wonder how debian created
those? Presumably they both use rust.

You can checkout mozilla-central and do mach bootstrap. This should give you 
all the tools if it works.

I get this error:

rustc --version
rustc 1.41.1


So I am going to try upgrading rust.

 ./rustup-init 
Illegal instruction

I give up. It looks like rust is not a high level language, but an
overrated assembler.

It is a work in progress alpha level language. Beta would imply that it is 
halfway feature complete but then we would not have breakage almost every 
release... Would love to get rid of it tomorrow.

Usually you can do
rustup default 1.47.0-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

and then just need to install the i686 target.

I can't install the rustup command because of illegal instructions. Nor
can I compile rust from source. So I think I must either stay with an
old version of SM or move my mail to a newer computer.

If your cpu lacks SSE2 support it is not worth it. With all the backports to 
2.53 and rust plus other later tools you will hit a wall even if you try to 
fix the build files up.

So this was a genius-level decision in Moz. Apparently there weren't 
enough mature high-level languages out there so they decided to invent a 
new one and make it part of their core product. Although, in retrospect, 
JavaScript might have been a precedent?

Someone who actually wanted to ship a reliable product might have 
preferred to invest the effort in language subsetting and static 
analysis tools, or, historically, making Scheme the scripting language 
of their browser.

Well I would not call myself an authority  when it comes to programming 
languages. Might be the best language in a millenium and I just a hater:)

But took an immediate dislike to it and found it too abstract and alien. Short 
release cycle with features added or changed was the last straw for me. For 
better or worse you can probably still compile c code from 1980 with current 
compilers but not one year old rust sources without fixups. Will be fun to see 
if all the users of it will be able to actually maintain the code they wrote 
down the road.

Unfortunately we are stuck with it until some nonexisting devs show up and 
replace it with more "traditional" code.

Not having such old sources handy (the oldest I have available is the
GNU assembler 1.38 from 1991) I can only guess that this is probably
true if compilation is for a 32-bit target. Even if it builds the
chances are high that the result will not work. However, with
contemporary compiler versions compiling such old sources would
certainly be a nightmare :-)

No, I got it from an error-message in 
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Maintenance:16186/seamonkey.openSUSE_Leap_15.2_Update 
- which is all well and good, except that the web-page at the end of 
that link has changed totally since I looked at it.
The Rust dependency is still there - with a "am I doing something 
wrong?" - but I can no longer find the original error-message there.
