For the moment all distributions and streams are on 52esr (including Tumbleweed) for the time being. Many of the things above are probably ok for Tumbleweed, some won't be for a set of users for quite some time (e.g. Java plugin support). How to move on for TW and Leap 42.3 is not decided yet I would say. For TW it's probably just temporary. One main reason blocking FF53 for TW currently is that FF53 also dropped i586 support which causes a technical issue with rust at the moment but also a policy one because TW is still supposed to support i586.
Can openSUSE provide both 53 and 52esr in the DVD download for the next distro?
I would also really appreciate having ESR available.
I have been thinking about that. As it is today that also has some challenges: - from upstream there is no differentiation of names, config locations, OS integrations between latest and ESR; therefore the currently existing packages available on the buildservice are conflicting with each other. What is the overall expectation? Being able to have them installed in parallel and just choose from a launcher? Or is it ok to conflict?
Personally I need ESR only. Having both available would be nice for others probably. Parallel install could be even more nice (via update-alternatives). Though for me it's most important that ESR is available at all. So you may decide if you want to spend extra time to make parallel installation possible or just submit both ESR and non-ESR to Leap as they are now.
- officially a downgrade is not supported which means people can switch from ESR to latest with their profile quite fine. A switch back though is a risk
This is just the user's or admin's problem if they actively switch the default firefox. By default only one should be installed. I would vote for ESR being default on Leap. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
