-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2026-da6eb57094 2026-02-03 03:27:00.111863+00:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : icecat Product : Fedora 42 Version : 140.7.0 Release : 9.rh1.fc42 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/ Summary : GNU version of Firefox browser Description : GNU IceCat is the GNU version of the Firefox ESR browser. Extensions included to this version of IceCat: * LibreJS GNU LibreJS aims to address the JavaScript problem described in the article "The JavaScript Trap" of Richard Stallman. * JShelter: Mitigates potential threats from JavaScript, including fingerprinting, tracking, and data collection. Slightly modifies the results of API calls, differently on different domains, so that the cross-site fingerprint is not stable. Applies security counter-measures that are likely not to break web pages. Allows fine-grained control over the restrictions and counter-measures applied to each domain. * A set of companion extensions for LibreJS by Nathan Nichols are pre-installed, and provide workarounds to use some services at USPS, RSF.org, SumOfUs.org, pay.gov, McDonalds, goteo.org and Google Docs without using nonfree JavaScript. * A series of configuration changes and tweaks were applied to ensure that IceCat does not initiate network connections that the user has not explicitly requested. This implies not downloading feeds, updates, blacklists or any other similar data needed during startup. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix missing icon on Dash Fix missing icon on dash when Icecat is running -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sun Jan 25 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-9.rh1 - Remove useless desktop-file-validate command * Sat Jan 24 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-8.rh1 - Use X-StartupWMClass to silence desktop-file-validate * Sat Jan 24 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-7.rh1 - Add StartupWMClass entry to .desktop file * Wed Jan 21 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-6.rh1 - Add patch for linux_seccomp.h * Wed Jan 21 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-5.rh1 - Fix cargo-checksum * Wed Jan 21 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-4.rh1 - Modify cargo-checksum * Wed Jan 21 2026 Antonio Trande <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-3.rh1 - Fix rhbz#2413096 * Fri Jan 16 2026 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 4:140.7.0-2.rh1 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_44_Mass_Rebuild -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
