[SOLVED] Where can I find localized source files for mozillla-firefox?

I try to build a localized mozilla-firefox esr24 using Slackware64-current's slackbuild, but the script fails to fetch the localization with mercurial, as something has changed in repositories' layout.

I'm unable to find the new location of localized sources (in my case for fr).

Any clue?

Hi Didier,

Here's the related xpi file for the French translation :

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o..._64/xpi/fr.xpi

This FTP server comes handy.

ici, peut-être?

Oui, merci!

Now building, results expected tomorrow.

PS

bash-4.2# cat /tmp/result.txt
Le paquet Slackware /tmp/mozilla-firefox-24.0esr-x86_64-1_fr.txz a été créé.

You could have saved yourself a lot of time by just repacking the French binary version that Mozilla provides and you would have got a faster (PGO) build as an added bonus:

$ wget www.panix.com/~ruari/latest-firefox
$ FFESR=Y FFLANG=fr bash latest-firefox

EDIT: If you don't want ESR, don't bother setting FFESR and you if want another language you could choose to set FFLANG to any one of the following: ach, af, ak, ar, as, ast, be, bg, bn-BD, bn-IN, br, bs, ca, cs, csb, cy, da, de, el, en-GB, en-US, en-ZA, eo, es-AR, es-CL, es-ES, es-MX, et, eu, fa, ff, fi, fr, fy-NL, ga-IE, gd, gl, gu-IN, he, hi-IN, hr, hu, hy-AM, id, is, it, ja, kk, km, kn, ko, ku, lg, lij, lt, lv, mai, mk, ml, mr, nb-NO, nl, nn-NO, nso, or, pa-IN, pl, pt-BR, pt-PT, rm, ro, ru, si, sk, sl, son, sq, sr, sv-SE, ta-LK, ta, te, th, tr, uk, vi, xpi, zh-CN, zh-TW, zu

Thanks for the tip and the script, Ruarí.

I slept while it was compiling but I could have saved some electrical energy

when I sent to Pat the code to get the localization sources, esr releases weren't available as mercurial tags, so I choose to get the not-esr tags and the code was like this

  LOC_TAG="FIREFOX_$( echo $VERSION | sed 's|esr||' | tr \. _ )_RELEASE"
  rm -f $LOC_TAG.tar.bz2
  wget https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-$MOZVERS/$MOZLOCALIZE/archive/$LOC_TAG.tar.bz2

now that they are available, just cutting off the interested sed should be enough

  LOC_TAG="FIREFOX_$( echo $VERSION | tr \. _ )_RELEASE"
  rm -f $LOC_TAG.tar.bz2
  wget https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-$MOZVERS/$MOZLOCALIZE/archive/$LOC_TAG.tar.bz2

BTW, I spotted that Pat re-enabled PGO building for x86_64 (so, if you have built it with the latest sources on x86_64 you should still have a PGO build)

Go to know!

@ ponce: Yes, but still it seems that URL has changed. As suggested by mancha I used:

https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-release/fr/archive/FIREFOX_24_0esr_RELEASE.tar.bz2

so instead of:

https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-$MOZVERS/$MOZLOCALIZE/archive/$LOC_TAG.tar.bz2

I wrote:

https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-release/$MOZLOCALIZE/archive/$LOC_TAG.tar.bz2

Originally Posted by ponce now that they are available, just cutting off the interested sed should be enough LOC_TAG="FIREFOX_$( echo $VERSION | tr \. _ )_RELEASE" rm -f $LOC_TAG.tar.bz2 wget https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-$MOZVERS/$MOZLOCALIZE/archive/$LOC_TAG.tar.bz2

I talked too early: the block has to be changed like this

  LOC_TAG="FIREFOX_$( echo $VERSION | tr \. _ )_RELEASE"
  rm -f $LOC_TAG.tar.bz2
  if echo $MOZVERS | grep -q esr ; then LOC_VERS=release ; else LOC_VERS=$MOZVERS ; fi
  wget https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-$LOC_VERS/$MOZLOCALIZE/archive/$LOC_TAG.tar.bz2

EDIT: yep, sorry Didier

I can confirm that with the above mod works fine

Thanks ponce!
