Manjaro no longer providing Plasma-based Firefox? File-dialog is GTK... #9

Closed star-buck closed 6 years ago

NuLogicSystems commented 6 years ago

No they don't, Manjaro droped the firefox-kde and thunderbird-kde packages way back in December 2017. They decided it wasn't worth the compilation times or resources of their build system for little to no benefit.

We additionally had a 3rd-party repo for firefox-kde, which however is now EOL as well.

Long story short: He decided to give up on firefox-kde.

Two reasons for this:

[home-thaodan]
Server = <https://thaodan.de/home/bidar/home-thaodan/x86_64/>

The key needs to be imported or distributed:

sudo pacman-key --recv-keys BBFE2FD421597395E4FC8C8DF6C85FEE79D661A4
pacman-key --finger BBFE2FD421597395E4FC8C8DF6C85FEE79D661A4
sudo pacman-key --lsign-key  BBFE2FD421597395E4FC8C8DF6C85FEE79D661A4
sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys

A possibility would be, to redistribute that package on our repos.

A possibility would be, to redistribute that package on our repos.

That would be nice, if it doesnt lead to a conflict with the normal firefox package.

NuLogicSystems commented 6 years ago

Yes, redistributing that package in the Manjaro repositories would be nice.

NuLogicSystems commented 6 years ago

@star-buck The firefox-kde-opensuse package is now in the Manjaro stable branch.

star-buck commented 6 years ago

Yes, lets try it.

NuLogicSystems commented 6 years ago

I'll build an RC6 ISO with it then. ;)
