I need to upgrade from 17.0.7esr to 17.0.8esr on Solaris 10 (SPARC) servers. For some reason there is no /contrib/ folder under http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/17.0.8esr/

That is where I normally find the Solaris tarball I need.

I notice there is a tarball under http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/candidates/17.0.8esr-candidates/build2/contrib/solaris_tarball/ but I am hesitant to use a "candidate" that didn't qualify for release.

Anyone know why this isn't released? Anyone tried the candidate?

I am guessing that like Ubuntu canonical builds that third party builds for SPARC tend to run somewhat behind the official Mozilla builds on which they are based.

You probably need to contact the SPARC devs for an answer.
