Hi,

I have successfully built and uploaded the latest version of the firefox pa=
ckage
for sparc64. The package has been verified to work fine (see screenshot in =
[1]).

This package was built with the help of QuickJS instead of NodeJS, the form=
er being
available on all architectures in Debian. See this discussion [2] in the sp=
arclinux
tracker for more.

All patches required to build the firefox package for sparc64 can be found =
in [3].

Cheers,
Adrian
