to untar <filename>firefox-&JS91-version;esr.tar.xz</filename> and

change into the <filename>firefox-&JS91-version;</filename> folder.

Extracting the tarball
|
|
will reset the permissions of the current directory to 0755 if you
|
|
have permission to do that. If you do this in a directory where
|
|
the sticky bit is set, such
|
|
as <filename class="directory">/tmp</filename> it will end with error
|
|
messages:

This does finish with non-zero status, but it does

Do not untar as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user

To run the JS test suite, issue:
|
|
<command>make -C js/src check-jstests
|
|
JSTESTS_EXTRA_ARGS="--timeout 300 --wpt=disabled"</command>.
|
|
It's recommended to redirect the output into a log.
|

<!-- recheck when ICU gets upgraded -->
|

Because we are building with system ICU, more than one hundred tests

(out of a total of more than 40,000) are known to fail.

An issue in the installation process causes any running program which

links to JS91 shared library (for example, GNOME Shell) to crash if

JS91 is upgraded or reinstalled. To work around this issue, remove
|
|
the old version of the JS91 shared library before installation:
