We need at least a newer SDK (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1324892). It seems building with the older one is causing more and more crashes on newer Apple hardware. :(

We need a newer cctools and clang, too, see: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1337233 (might be another good opportunity to finally solve #9711 (moved)?)

Firefox 60 is the new ESR.

I opened to #26251 (moved) to track the snowflake related changes. We wont' wait for them though before switching our macOS nightly builds to ESR 60. Thus, I'll disable snowflake for the time being in case it takes a bit longer to adapt it to the new toolchain.

The first pre-nightly Tor Browser based on ESR 60 finished building. Could someone with recent enough macOS systems test whether the bundle is at least running?

I did some quick tests on a Retina MacBook Pro (macOS 10.13.4) and on an older iMac (macOS 10.11.6). Good news so far: the only problem I noticed that might not be known yet is that the app icon was positioned incorrectly within the DMG installer window: I am not sure what caused that problem, but we should fix it when we re-do that window to use the new icon.

I created #26263 (moved) to track this issue.

That's great news, thanks! I posted patches for all child bugs. I'll add patches for the remaining bugs on a branch for this ticket including all the other patches, too, in order to have one branch which one can actually use to test building the whole thing.

bug_24632_v2 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-build.git/log/?h=bug_24632_v2) has all the 8 patches to fix this bug. Please review.

I cherry-picked the following commits on master:

• 7997d2322347f742e7f4ede47379119faeb03bdd: Bug 24632: Use our new toolchain for rustc compilation
• 3b5038d90cac5cfcf6856cc0786cfa99adbc775a: Bug 24632: Adapt tor and OpenSSL for new macOS toolchain
• a0130c9a178ae919a400ad014d7f855a282c72b4: Bug 24632: Bump clang version in go build script comment
• 3db16b9c473ec950452126700fc1e22f71ed8190: Bug 24632: Disable snowflake for macOS for now

The last missing one is Bug 24632: Adapt firefox and tor-browser to new macOS toolchain. For this one, I think we don't need to include llvm in the firefox build for macOS, as it is already included in macosx-toolchain. So I suggest the following change (fixup commit to be squased after review): https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-build.git/commit/?h=bug_26003_v2&id=6f7ae06bbae28efc8a84db504c1ceb1744bb8a88
