I definitely agree.
I find strange that the maintainer(s) would do such a mistake continuously.
Are you sure there's no missing info on this issue?
I remember seeing Abrowser being part of the updates a few "months" ago.
Is there a way to see the update history of a program?
It didn't work because I set my wallpaper with "display" while with "feh"
works without problems.
With those kind of conditions, glad to see them go.
The Abrowser situation annoys me too. I am currently evaluating Parabola.
Installing it was surprisingly easy. I remembered having a hard time trying
to install Arch a few years ago (I actually never succeeded :)), but
following the beginner's guide to Parabola was really straightforward
The last fully free distro I used was parabola. It was fine until a broken
update to OpenSSL completely trashed my system. I couldn't browse the
internet, I couldn't install updates, and I couldn't even revert to an older
version of OpenSSL. I still don't know what cause it to happen (but
It's a volunteer effort so no guarantees. I never saw the appeal of these
derivatives over Firefox other than ideological purity. I don't think
ideological purity should be at the expense of security updates, as long as I
can use a system with libre software alone. I am thinking of switching
Yep, I made the switch last night and successfully updated.
Thanks. Does it happen often? Or, how long has it been left not updated?
Thanks.
Basically, ESR or not, at some point it's time to upgrade, because the
security fixes are not backported from the latest version anymore,if I
understand.
This is definitely not right.
I'd rather have the money spent on this instead.
The browser is one of the weakest links, so this
IceCat and Abrowser don't apply their own security patches. They track
Firefox Extended Support Release, except when they don't, and aren't up to
date. Like, er, now.
Don't use the US mirror. Use archive.trisquel.info without the us in front.
That was before the Firefox rapid release, when Debian/Ubuntu backported
security patches to the version of Firefox they were using. Now all distros
either use the latest version, or a supported ESR version. Debian uses the
ESR version, but no longer backports security fixes, so once the
For me, it kind of works, though I use i3, not Openbox.
I only kept the main bar a bit transparent, else I had everything have some
transparency, which was unusable.
But it works otherwise.
In that other thread, it is said that Abrowser's version in Trisquel 7 is
outdated.
But according to this, it isn't a problem regarding support
(https://trisquel.info/fr/forum/icecat-default-browser#comment-3375).
> Web Browser 3.5? Why should Trisquel users have to get an outdated
version
I'm planning to install Debian testing (main only, of course) one of these
days. Because of the vulnerable Abrowser, and because I need newer versions
of some packages (for which I downloaded the .debs from Debian). I also like
Parabola.
Ok come on, spit it out...
Your a MATE developer, right?
Which of the free distros do you have experience with?
I'll probably leave Trisquel as well but I'd rather move to a free distro
than an optionally free distro. That would make it so much simpler to answer
people who ask which distro I'm using. :)
I think Parabola is where I'm going next.
ok, but have some saass

I'm just thinking of the reason as to why they want to leave GNU...
So I dug around nano-devel mailing list that you referenced earlier, and
found useful references:

In my LibreBoot X200 the compositor Compton doesn't work with Openbox
WM while in lxde session works fine, does any x200 user have the same
problem?
Can GNU save you from a past life of looking at the world through dirty
Windows?
Can GNU save you from the cult if "i"?
Is there a Kernel of truth waiting for us to rescue it?
Don't give me SaaSS now... just the truth.
I do want to try Ratpoison. It does look really cool and certainly has a lot
of geek street cred. I try them all out at some point or another anyway.
Besides, who couldn't use a little more self-satisfying snuggery?
My little joke above was because people seem to get really passionate
Unfortunately, you are very right about this. :-( In the long run, I might do
the same.

As much as I love fully free distros, I'm thinking of switching to debian and
just not enabling nonfree repos. It seems every fully free distro is
consistently teetering on the brink of being left unsupported.
It's funny that wikipedia says that nano already left the GNU Umbrella
yesterday. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nano_(text_editor)
See https://support.apple.com/zh-cn/HT2225
The easiest way to discover it is to install the latest Linux-libre kernel
from Jxself's repository, boot it and see: https://jxself.org/linux-libre/
nah,I love me my gui
hi
its seme nano will lleve gnu

You're right, there seems to be an issue with the US mirror. I switched to
the main server and it's now updating normally.
