Re: win32 nightly build broken

[Derek Atkins]

Yeah, VMWare is broken with FireFox 3.6. My planned workaround for when I upgrade my desktop is to install 3.5 in /opt for use with VMWare.  Apparently VMWare considers it a FireFox bug, but FireFox considers it a VMWare bug.  There is no known workaround except to us an older version.

I'll go look at the vm once I get home.

The nightly windows build is broken (after my gtk version update). 
Unfortunately our previously available connection for remote log-in doesn't 
work at the moment, because the VMhost browser plugin is known for not to work 
with certain firefox 3.6.x versions, which I happen to be using. Hence, I 
haven't been able to log into the build machine now and also for quite some 
time due to this vmhost plugin bug. Geert Janssens was able to log in by using 
a completely different browser (IIRC on a virtual machine running windows), 
but he's on holiday right now and can't work on this. I'm just saying I will 
try to log into the build server in order to track down the issue that's 
breaking the build, but this nasty vmware bug is hindering us from progress 
here. Maybe I'll find another machine which isn't behind a restrictive 
firewall (as my daytime computers are), but until then, the windows build 
probably won't miraculously start to work again. Sorry for that.

Regards,

Christian
