> We only have a month until we need to switch over to ESR24. We should
just start building ESR17 from the ESR24 descriptors. Basically the only
differences will be python and a new compiler for MacOS, right?
No. See #9837 and #9858. Although the workaround for the latter should be
working for ESR17 as well. Apart from that I planned to get rid of the
hacky links we set in the Firefox descriptor for Mac OS X. Mozilla has
already a patch for it on trunk which I planned to backport for ESR24.
Thus, we'd need either different descriptors for ESR17 and ESR24 or we
need to keep the links or we need to backport the fix for ESR17 as well.
> After this transition, the stable and alpha releases will both be based
on ESR24 for some time. This will make using a different versions file
even more straightforward.
Okay, then lets try to avoid alpha descriptors. We'll see how far we get
with it.
