[request] Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3
Mozilla Firefox has been flagged out of date for ages (?) and we are still running 0.91 while 0.99 was just released. How much work does it require to make a mantainance-update of the package?
No offence, I just felt it deserved some attention.

Re: [request] Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3
I think 0.9.2 was only an update for the windows version, as it was that one that had the security hole.
And where were all the sportsmen who always pulled you though?

Re: [request] Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3
Firefox was not updated to 0.9.2 because it was just a windows bug fix, but it will be updated to 0.9.3 before "ages" occur.

You could build it yourself if you wanted to...

My bad, but at least it got the attention. :twisted:

What attention? We already knew about it before you posted anything.

Which, btw, works just fine. Copy /var/abs/network/mozilla-firefox to /var/abs/local (or wherever), change the PKGBUILD version entry to 0.9.3, makepkg, pacman -U mozilla-firefox-etcetcetc, done.
Takes quite a long time to compile, though. Works like a charm, mind.
