Hi,

It seems a lot of people are using mozmake, which is good,
unfortunately, some are using an old version and i broke them with bug
944569. Those people need to upgrade mozmake by taking the last version
on either http://people.mozilla.org/~mhommey/mozmake.exe or
https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/birch/file/tip/mozmake.exe.
Alternatively, they can upgrade mozilla build to the pre-release of 1.9.0
that RyanVM posted a few days ago.

Cheers,

Mike

Is this the default right now? If someone follows the steps and gets the Mozilla Build package on that page[1], will their build fail or succeed?

That page points to the latest MozillaBuild release (1.8) which does not
contain any version of mozmake.  Someone who follows those instructions
will not be affected by this bug, since their build will use pymake by
default.

The only people who affected by this bug are those who downloaded an
early version of "mozmake.exe" and installed it manually.

FWIW..upgrading my mozilla build to 1.9.0 did not fix this for me.
I had to manually d/l and install the newer version, as I did with the
original version.
Building TB fine now, so no harm done.
