Release 17.1

[garrett]

I've done the big merge of the new stuff from Firefox 17. There are little bugs here and there. We need to fix these and support the new features.

You can see the merge on the upgrade-to-17 branch: https://github.com/gnome-integration-team/firefox-gnome/compare/upgrade-to-17

Hopefully we can get these minor issues resolved soon and then release 17.1! (:

New features / changes:

1. Social integration (Facebook, basically for now)
2. Plugin blocking (for old versions of Flash and other plugins)

Modifications:

1. The download window
2. Devtools debugger / console / etc.
3. Alerts
4. Video UI

Current issues:

1. The back button is too large vertically
2. URL box is messed up.

[garrett]

Social support is issue #143, btw.

[seleznev]

Ahahahahhahah!

[garrett]

@seleznev: You rock! Thanks for fixing various issues already. (:

Also, I did add a few comments in the merge, as I wasn't sure exactly what to do. When those cases arose, I usually just left in code and added comments, assuming that we could fix in the branch.

[garrett]

Oh, the back button being larger is a result of having the Facebook integration turned on. I guess the Facebook buttons force that whole area to be a bit larger, and the button takes up the space.

[seleznev]

a few comments

Yes, you saved many my time)) Thanks)

Facebook

I hate it now %)

[garrett]

We should try to get 17.1 out ASAP.

I'm looking at the list of bugs for this milestone and see:

1. Support for Facebook integration #143 (Done enough for release?)
2. Reverting common styles to let GTK2 theme handle them. #115 (What's the status?)
3. Scrollbars suck in in-page use #114 (Should we punt to after the release?)

[seleznev]

(Done enough for release?)

Yes.

(What's the status?)

It's look very nice with GNOME 3.6! =)

2 Everything is reverted. Things look fine now.

3 Yes, we'll talk about that after the release.

Thanks. :)

Here are the changes from 16.1 to 17.1: https://github.com/gnome-integration-team/firefox-gnome/compare/16.1...master

• Compact tabs bar when "Use Small Icons" checkbox is on
• Improved inactive state implementation
• Removed background for identity box for some https sites

[garrett]

Are we good for release?

(I'm about to be AFK for a bit... but can release either late tonight or sometime tomorrow if we're good. Please let me know if there's anything that needs fixing otherwise.)

[0rAX0]

Looks good to me.

We don't have any errors, but we do have warnings (all related to prefixing, it seems... and I think at least some of these are prefixed in the upstream theme too):

[garrett]

The warnings don't stop the release; and I can fix those in master with a couple Perl one-liners.

[garrett]

essentially, I did something like this:

perl -p -i -e "s/-moz-foo/foo/g" */*.css

[seleznev]

@garrett, great work! =)

17.1 was released, and is on add-ons as of this past week.
