Firefox's "Australis" can best be described as "the systemd of GUI's". It's what drove me away from Firefox to Pale moon, in the first place, and I'm not going back. I understand that Anthony is frustrated with uclibc, and is working on replacing it with the uclibc-ng fork in the uclibc stage 3. I've run into other issues, besides gstreamer, in uclibc. Hopefully, uclibc-ng will have fewer issues. For now, I'll simply wait until the uclibc-ng stage 3 comes out. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
