Hi,
Seems that, at last, I'll get some time to work on FreeBSD
ports/packages.
I've allready some notes on MoFo ports to comment before going on.
Mozilla/AVIARY_1_0
- I think that the actual chrome reg must be change:
+ move the chrome reg code to register.sh
so we can share it with ports like enigmail via source/invoke
from pkg scripts
+ use a chrome.d/ for installed-chrome.txt re-generation
move initial installed-chrome.txt to chrome.d/00base.chrome
use chrome.d/<nn><name>.chrome for aditional chrome
use chrome.d/<nn><name>.sed to polite installed-chrome.txt before
+ maybe some support for prefs components
+ work some kinda of Makefile.component from the ones out there
Mozilla (seamonkey)
- add support for localized builds and/or packages
this will need generated l10n tarballs from MoFo CVS
and maintain it. (low change rate).
- take off chazilla support and use and .xpi based approach
In the main port or in a separate port (irc/chatzilla)
Use the latest stable maintained code
Firefox/Thunderbird
- While we can't confirm a good .xpi support from AVIARY_1_1, merge
register.sh and chrome.d/ from mozilla
- Change to new intl support (seems fully functional) and let firefox
auto detect LANG
- After make this fully functional in seamonkey,
merge localized builds and/or packages.
- Try to make firefox the default base for gnome browsers,
at last, for epiphany.
- If we need begin the works for AVIARY_1_1,
repocopy in firefox-devel/thunderbird-devel
- Think about resurrect the uri-helper port
more easy integration with non-gnome desktops
