I have never updated librsvg beyond 2.40.20, so no rustc on my
systems. X11/Xfce works well so far. Ok, i also do not install firefox
(systems are mainly servers) and i'm looking for alternatives.
Does firefox *require* newer versions of librsvg or is it just because
we have newer versions in book?
Currently looking at Vivaldi - a chromium based browser. But source
tarball is 1GB in size - so my hope for something lightweight is
rather small.
As suggested by Bruce, I am working on XFCE4 (result not yet perfect) Tried many time to cleanly compile rustc (after my previous comment), but never reach a point where I could trust-Rust. So As you, I downgraded librsvg to 2.40.20 and put the rustc spec file within the "bad" project folder. As browser, I am using falkon 3.0.1 within LXQT. falkon impressed me. Working on a config SDDM+LXQT+XFCE I'll keep the list posted about this.
In addition, Vivaldi is proprietary "freeware" and not FLOSS. Richard
