    1. Mercurial is the version management system that is used by Mozilla and it is necessary. (in my case: sudo pacman -S mercurial)
      • > hg version
        Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 6.9)
        (see https://mercurial-scm.org for more information)

    2. Make the working directory with: mkdir tb-build && cd tb-build
    3. wget https://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/raw-file/tip/python/rocboot/bin/bootstrap.py (downloads the Python bootstrap script)
    4. chmod +x bootstrap.py (gives executable file permissions to the script)
      • > ls -l

        drwxr-xr-x 1 chris chris  2264 Jan 17 18:14 mozilla-unified
    5. ./bootstrap.py (actually runs the script). The first problem I encountered was the rustup version. It was solved with rustup install stable and rustup default stable
    6. Build the sources with ./mach build and then run with ./mach run

    The whole building process lasted approximately 8 minutes on my AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16-Core Processor and required 30.1 GiB (32,355,790,419), 1,401,719 files, 138,437 sub-folders

  • Critical rsync security release 3.4.0

    January 16th, 2025

    Update your systems!

    “We’d like to raise awareness about the rsync security release version 3.4.0-1 as described in our advisory ASA-202501-1.

    An attacker only requires anonymous read access to a vulnerable rsync server, such as a public mirror, to execute arbitrary code on the machine the server is running on. Additionally, attackers can take control of an affected server and read/write arbitrary files of any connected client. Sensitive data can be extracted, such as OpenPGP and SSH keys, and malicious code can be executed by overwriting files such as ~/.bashrc or ~/.popt.

    We highly advise anyone who runs an rsync daemon or client prior to version 3.4.0-1 to upgrade and reboot their systems immediately. As Arch Linux mirrors are mostly synchronized using rsync, we highly advise any mirror administrator to act immediately, even though the hosted package files themselves are cryptographically signed.

    All infrastructure servers and mirrors maintained by Arch Linux have already been updated.”
