I recall trying gtk+-3 with ff-32.0 and finding the combination unusable (my notes are in the wiki). When 43.0 came out I noted that gtk+-3 is now supposed to be working, but I didn't have time or a spare box to try that (my test machine was temporarily out of use). Now that 44.0 is here and my test machine is again usable (bigger drive), I've given it a go.
For safety I copied ~/.mozilla to ~/.mozilla-gtk2 in case I needed to go back, but it is working fine. This is with ffmpeg-2.7.5, grepping for ffmpeg in the .so libs shows media.ffmpeg.enabled and libavcodec-ffmpeg.so.56. The only addition to my build is echo 'ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk3' >>mozconfig (I start with most of the book's .mozconfig in the usual way, but then from time to time I conditionally add changes such as this). I suppose that I'll probably stay with the default gtk2 on my main two machines, but this is definitely looking usable. ĸen -- This email was written using 100% recycled letters. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
