Description SpanKY gentoo-dev 2007-02-26 03:04:58 UTC
the trouble with mozilla branding is based around binary packages ... we have a USE flag just for this (bindist)

as for building on user's systems, we're not redistributing binaries, so let users get the branding with their customizations

app-office/mozilla-sunbird
mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird
www-client/mozilla-firefox

have all mozbranding replaced by bindist and enabled the branding by default.

For firefox i just modified the latest ebuild, which should be stable wrt bug 165555. So it's up to you to close this bug or not, i'll close it when i can clean up the oldish firefox ebuilds(which i'm waiting for the arches to stabilize the newer)

mostly :)

the default user emerging firefox will now get a branded version (yeah!)

so as to be clear, does USE=bindist give a branded firefox ?
