Re: Mozilla 1.2 for Woody?
I agree completly about what you said.
Is anybody interested to get these packages for
mozilla 1.1 ?
I have built it against the stable libraries to be
used with Woody by this method...

I could upload them if there is a space offered.
Alternatively, I could put it available for
downloading on my Mac PPC.
After nearly 12 months daily use I can say that
mozilla 1.1 is at least as stable as 1.0, maybe even
more.
It works pretty well on Woody in deed.
I guess that 1.2 wouldn't be worse either, thus I
would like to get it now if somebody has compiled it
against stable libraries, in this way...
fakeroot apt-get source -b mozilla
Well, then there is of course a risk to receive a
Trojan or back-orifice as a bonus
