Thunderbird doesn't compile because of mismathching compile options
Created by: TommiP
Thunderbird doesn't compile because of incompatible compile options. Some options force PIE off and others force PIE on.
This seems to be the reason for both 12-Stable and 13-Current compile errors:
I would suggest that we first turn off PIE support. As it has been configured in the makefile: USE_HARDENING= pie:off
The part that seems to conflict with this is this: MOZ_OPTIONS+=â–¸ --enable-pie
If this is a suitable solution i can create a pull request for this.
Note:
Thunderbird has had PIE always turned on for Linux since end of 2018: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1079662
It would be good to investigate if HBSD PIE support would be possible. We'll see if someone has time for this.
