[Bug-gnuzilla] IceCat oddities with minified resources in 60.2.0
Hello, So far, I've confirmed IceCat with minified resources to be working now as I expected on the pages I tested. Thank you, from original reporter Sent using Sharklasers.com Block or report abuse: https://www.sharklasers.com//abuse/?a=Q1RzSAoOVq4chAK10HkRZ1rIX80%3D -- http://gnuzilla.gnu.org
Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] IceCat oddities with minified resources in 60.2.0
That's quite an interesting observation, because I have occasionally had a very similar problem with pre-webextension Gecko-based browsers, whereby the browser would encounter certain minified CSS, and would then hang with 100% CPU, and RAM usage getting higher and higher, for which reason I've had to force-stop the browser processes. Often, it's been some font file, or some JavaScript that's been the culprit instead, but not always. The only remedy was to find the offending file by blocking all types of SCRIPT,FONT,CSS in classic NoScript's Application Boundaries Enforcer (ABE), and to test which type of file, and then which particular file has been acting up so much. After that, the hang-inducing file could be blocked individually; best even with a partial pattern match, or a regular expression in NoScript's ABE rules to prevent newer versions of the same file from being blocked. Alas, I have not seen the ABE configuration UI in webextension NoScript, nor any other complex, or granular and detailed ways of configuring the new-type NoScript. -M. 27.09.2018 3:15 kirjutas kuupäeval "Mike Gerwitz" : > On Wed, Sep 26, 2018 at 01:14:05 +, f133y9+7xq0rlfpyo0is@ > sharklasers.com wrote: > > I am using GuixSD and its IceCat version was recently upgraded to > 60.2.0.

bugs in any program that was installed using the package manager of your distro are almost always best reported to the distro - have you tried the icecat built by GNU? http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gnuzilla/60.2.0/ also, note that this is an alpha release - that means it is probably buggy and your distro probably should not be distributing it yet -- http://gnuzilla.gnu.org
[Bug-gnuzilla] IceCat oddities with minified resources in 60.2.0
Hello, I am using GuixSD and its IceCat version was recently upgraded to 60.2.0. I found, then, that a lot of websites were broken and did not behave like they did before the update (and like they do in other browsers)—and since, I have discovered the one thing they all have in common—whatever features were broken depended on minified CSS or JavaScript that had all of the script in one line. I found that I could get minified CSS to function as normal by editing it in the Style Editor, even by just adding a space somewhere or editing a comment—implying that IceCat does, like Firefox of the same version, have support for long lines of code, it just does not respond correctly when they are loaded. I continued to encounter this behavior even with all of the privacy settings on the front page turned off and all remaining extensions (the LibreJS compatibility and HTTPS everywhere extensions) disabled.
