Re: What are the current available browser options for debian-ppc64?

Yes, that one works pretty well, better than I expected it would.

Thank you!

To get it to launch, I had to make a symlink, as it’s built against libffi6 but that version is not available any more on any of my apt sources it appears.… 

ie in: 

/usr/lib/powerpc64-linux-gnu

I did this, which is no doubt sinful:

ln -s libffi.so.8 libffi.so.6

I am aware of a few projects out there working to try to keep a repackaged TenFourFox going that have *.deb archives available, and I think there are some official channels for a few different browsers inside debian (Firefox, Epiphany).

Does anyone have or know about a browser they use on debian ppc64 they would feel comfortable to recommend?

Does it involve any installation trickery? If so, some short notes on how to get it installed would be appreciated.

Thanks,
