Description Prof. Jonathan King 2005-07-13 13:41:33 UTC

I recently emerged the unstable version of Galeon

% esearch -Fv www-client/galeon
*  www-client/galeon
      Latest version available: 1.3.21
      Latest version installed: 1.3.21
      Unstable version:         1.3.21
      Use Flags (stable):       -debug -debug -debug -doc -firefox 
      Homepage:    http://galeon.sourceforge.net
      Description: A GNOME Web browser based on gecko (mozilla's rendering engine)

and changed the USE-flag (unlike shown above) to "+firefox".
Galeon emerged fine, and ran fine, except that I could no-longer
start a text-search (within the displayed webpage) by typing "/";
the character seemed to be ignored.  (I still could use C-f to
pop-up a search window.)

Upon re-emerging with "-firefox", the "/" now worked.  In
Firefox, "/" also starts a search, so maybe this is a bug.

not gnome

The firefox-support in galeon is very experimental, it needs a couple of 
patches to really work (see bug #86872). 
Mozilla-team, can you please comment if you plan to add the patches from 86872 
or what's stopping you from doing so?

Is fixed with latest firefox-ebuild.

Comment 4 Prof. Jonathan King 2005-08-30 22:08:01 UTC

Thank you.  What, please, is the version number of the fixed
Firefox ebuild?  --and is it in x86 or ~x86, please?
