mozjs115 115.7.0 failed to build on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS which is one step
ahead of Debian on the Python 3.12 transition. I didn't check the
firefox-esr build but I assume it would probably have the same
failure.

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mozjs115/115.7.0-1/+latestbuild/amd64

I found a fix for this issue in the source for Firefox 120 and I
adapted it to work with the mozjs115 package. https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mozjs/-/blob/debian/115/master/debian/patches/python3.12-six.patch

Thank you,

Amin Bandali collected several other fixes that were necessary for
mozjs115 to build with Python 3.12 beyond the one that I noticed was
included in 115.8.

You can find them in the python3.12 patches in https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mozjs/-/tree/debian/115/master/debian/patches

(Note that mozjs115 is partially stripped down so I can't guarantee
that even those patches are complete for firefox-esr's needs.)

Therefore, I presume we will need to reopen this bug, but I have not
tried building firefox-esr myself.

Thank you,
