"will" - this implies that it will happen in the future, but not at present. > * has epiphany shed mozilla dependency and can rely on gre. Not yet. Galeon and epiphany upstream still both recommend using mozilla. There have been no messages about GRE on the galeon-devel ml, so I assume it is not yet in a state to be used by anyone other than its developers. > * would shedding the mozilla-browser dependency help > epiphany packages migrate into testing or would that > mean that gecko bugs wouldn't be related to epiphany? > (I hope that makes sense.) Rather than shedding a dependency, it would be changing a dependency from mozilla to gre. In terms of testing, it would probably make things worse since it would be far harder to find out which bugs are gre's fault than it is currently. -- .''`.
