Leaving the catastrophy untouched? Imho no mozilla in debian is even better than a terrible broken mozilla in debian. And hey, what about the programs depending on mozilla. They are effected as welll, aren't they? As a ordinary debian user, I doesn't have much knowlegde about debian at all, but I agree with Florian Weimer. Something HAS to be done. This not a question of realase politics or so. Keeping woody stable by not switching to brand new version of some packages is one (good) thing, but replacing broken packages is also very important. Do really want to assure the stability of a security hole? As user im not in charge with dicisions. But what about a petiotion or a poll? Are there any guidelines from the current project leader? What about changing the mozilla version in a democratic way?
