This package can be installed without problems, if you have installed JS-17.0.0. It is necessary to set SHELL=/bin/bash if you are working in chroot.
Install JS by running the following commands:
cd js/src && sed -i 's/(defined\((@TEMPLATE_FILE)\))/\1/' config/milestone.pl && ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --enable-readline \ --enable-threadsafe \ --with-system-ffi \ --with-system-nspr && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root
user:
make install && find /usr/include/mozjs-24/ \ /usr/lib/libmozjs-24.a \ /usr/lib/pkgconfig/mozjs-24.pc \ -type f -exec chmod -v 644 {} \;
sed ... config/milestone.pl: Fix an issue caused by perl-5.22.0 and later.
