I've started making debian packages of the latest galeon CVS trees available over at:
http://silverchair.futureks.net/~solomon/galeon/ The 0.7.3 deb available there has been slightly enhanced as well, see the changelog.Debian. Potato users will probably want to read http://silverchair.futureks.net/~solomon/galeon/potato.html for isntallation instructions. If you don't know whether you're running potato, then you probably are :D In my opinion, the builds in both of these debs are quite useable and the packages no longer have very big problems. Perhaps someone should take them up and stick them into the unstable debian distribution? In other news, i'm looking into attempting to apply the patches given here and build these packages for Mozilla M18 nightlies. There are M18 debian packages available from XK at: http://center.oftheinter.net/~debian/hybrid/ The problem is that there are no mozilla-dev M18 packages available with which I can compile galeon. This especially sucks because, if the recent comments about building with GCC 2.95.2 are true, the only reason i've been able to do so is because the M17 mozilla and mozilla-dev packages were compiled by the debian maintainer using GCC 2.95.2. This means that, unless the debian maintainer feels like going to the trouble of compiling M18 mozilla and mozilla-dev packages, it will be extremely difficult for me to get galeon to compile for M18. Hrm, I think i'll send this to the debian mozilla maintainer and the debian devel list as well as this list :) Anyway, I'm just mentioning this in case anyone has some ideas/information that I don't. Any information would be appreciated. From what I hear, some of the recent nightlies (ones without bugs 50994 and 51164) have been extremely nice, and i know that galeon's CVS tree is looking quite good (and will only get better), so it would be awesome for people to get to play with both of these things :) -- Jared Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] They are relatively good but absolutely terrible. -- Alan Kay, commenting on Apollos -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS/C d+(-)>-- s:+ a19 C++++$ UL++++>$ P+>++++ L+++ E--- W+ N+ o?
