Fwd: MozillaBuild 1.7 Release

[Gregory Szorc]

Firefox devs,

I urge you to take the time to upgrade your Windows development
environment ASAP. You'll find Mercurial 2.5 is much, much better than
the previously-shipping 1.9 version. And, I'd eventually like to bump
the build requirements to Python 2.7.3 and don't want people disrupted
when this occurs.

I am pleased to announce that (thanks to work by Ted) MozillaBuild 1.7 is
available at
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/libraries/win32/MozillaBuildSetup-Latest.exe

This release contains:
- Support for the 8.0 SDK with MSVC 2010
- Mercurial 2.5.4
- Python 2.7.4
- NSIS 2.22 has been removed.

To upgrade,

1. Remove your current mozillabuild installation. (If you can't remove the
existing installation, you probably have a Mozillabuild terminal open or
ssh-agent running. Terminate it and try again).
2. Install MozillaBuild 1.7.
3. Clobber (remove the object directory of) any trees you have. (If you
don't do this you'll get weird build errors).

Please file any problems you come across in mozilla.org::MozillaBuild.

- Kyle
