If you mean the Fedorahosted liveusb-creator, that looks useful to have in Debian for non-technical users. If upstream could be made build-time flexible about distros, it could be useful to both Debian or Tails.

I think the iceweasel-source binary package idea was the most likely to work in the shortish term and I believe that the issues blocking iceweasel-source are solved now so you might want to submit a wishlist bug as a reminder about that. > - vidalia: we patch it to hide some parts of the UI that are > useless, or harmful, in the context of Tails.

Apparently the Tor Browser folks have replaced vidalia with a Firefox-based Tor controller called Tor Launcher, you might want to sync with their choices. https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/1075/what-happened-to-vidalia -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
