Hi All,

I created a new build environment for SeaLion last week.

With this new build environment, I compiled the latest SeaLion with the new UXP version UXP-RB_20250602.

Download: github.com

.mozconfig:

Code: Select all

export CC="gcc -m32"
export CXX="g++ -m32"
mk_add_options PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2
mk_add_options AUTOCONF=/usr/bin/autoconf-2.13

# Set GTK Version to 2 or 3
_GTK_VERSION=2

ac_add_options --target=powerpc-linux-gnu
ac_add_options --host=powerpc-linux-gnu 
ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg 
ac_add_options --enable-application=navigator
ac_add_options --enable-optimize
ac_add_options --enable-jxl
ac_add_options --enable-strip
ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk2 
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --disable-debug

It isn’t an official release. Maybe Wicknix releases it as an official release.

I already added it and I am writing from within Sealion 33.7.2 in MintPPC32. Everyone in MintPPC32 can upgrade now.

Patches for Arctic Fox/Musl. Also for SeaLion.

I use the following patches for SeaLion/musl for Adélie Linux.

On musl libc, #define free is dangerous.
