[opensuse] MozillaFirefox-3.6.x already dropped?
I thought 3.6.x would be continued until at least later this month, until LTS 10.4 or whatever is available. Is this absence an error or otherwise temporary? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.

"continued" basically means that it's not yet compromised but the last version was (most likely) the real last one. Therefore I moved it from mozilla to mozilla:legacy already where other upstream unmaintained packages went in the past.

Why with mozilla:legacy enabled is the following happening (mozilla-xulrunner192 is not found in 'zypper ll' output, though mozilla-xulrunner20-gnome is)?

No idea. For which openSUSE version does it happen? The release numbers look wrong but not sure. Likely they went down when I moved the packages to the other project. And currently there is no Firefox 3.6 package for 12.1 (and I cannot fix it atm as OBS is down).

11.4. 3.6 wasn't in the 12.1 release, so I never looked in repos for it for 12.1. I use Mozilla.org's static zips when I need older than current on 12.1 or Factory. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Felix, FWIW, I moved to FF 11.0 without much kicking and screaming. Both FF & TB are notably slower (but very usable) in the post 3X releases. I'm hoping this behavior will get ironed out in the upcoming releases. Wolfgang? -- David C.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=537890 implemented broken IE and Safari behavior in Gecko (justified as lesser evil). 3.6.x is the last line that still could make 12pt=12pt by using actual display DPI (when accurately set) instead of 16px without application of proprietary CSS (mozmm). That breaks every web page using pt/in/cm/etc. (all absolute units, which 537890 eliminated for all displays that are not in fact 96 DPI pixel density) to display objects at their actual size rather than a "logical" size. Open http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/dpi-screen-window.html or http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/Font/fonts-ptdemo.html in a non-96DPI environment in 3.6.x and 4+ side by side to see an example. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
