Well, take a look on MandrakeClub, we have Mozilla-1.4, galeon rebuilt for mozilla-1.4 and epiphany too, which were all available within about 3 days of the source release of 1.4 ... > It seems like there should be a better solution than to cut > mozilla-devel from the download release since it is absolutely > essential for building any of the gecko based applications. Most of which are provided (I meant to build wxMozilla but didn't get to it ...). Anyway, if 1% of the users (and that's optimistic) are going to be building and hosting mozilla-related packages, I am sure they can download the 3MB -devel package. Instead of the -devel package, maybe there are other *real* applications that users, who have no idea how to compile gecko apps, will be able to use. Of course, mozilla is one of those packages that gets out-of-date pretty quickly, so in 3 weeks time you aren't going to want the -devel package from 1.4 any more ...
