Description Michaela Susan Buesing 2004-06-21 19:05:07 UTC
This is a new ebuild I have made for the new galeon 1.2.14. There are quite some people still using the 1.2 versions.

Reproducible: Always

Re-Assigned to the package mantainer and added gnome herd to CC list.
Comment 3 Lars Strojny 2004-09-05 10:51:27 UTC
In my status of information, galeon 1.2.x doesn't compile with mozilla 1.7.2. There is no possibility to support older mozilla-versions because of the security leak in <=mozilla-1.7.0.
Comment 4 Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2004-09-15 02:49:22 UTC
Okay, I have a problem with this.
galeon-1.2.x is deprecated and no longer supported by their devs. Due to the galeon-page, it only works till mozilla 1.7.
As there have been a bunch of security-bugs in mozilla fixed in the 1.7.x-versions, this cannot stay in the tree.
If anyone is interested in still having a galeon-1.2 in portage, can you please verify if it can be built against 1.7.3 and provide an ebuild? I won't do this myself, because I don't have a system with mozilla-gtk1.
If noone steps in here, I'll remove galeon-1.2.x from portage.
Comment 5 Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2004-09-20 06:31:08 UTC
As galeon-1.2.x is unsupported by their devs and nobody seems to look at the security-issues with old mozilla-versions, I'll remove the ebuilds from the tree.
If anyone wants galeon-1.2 back, please contact me so we can solve these issues.
