Great. :) > All the needed patches are attached: > > "0001-generate-iceweasel-profile-at-build-time.patch" and > "0001-symlink-places.sqlite-for-bookmarks-persistence.patch" are for > Tails; This one should also create an empty directory in /etc/skel. Otherwise the 'bookmarks' directory will not exist when no persistence is used, resulting in a broken Iceweasel. What is also needed before we can merge this work is an update to the design documents and the end-user documentation, see <https://tails.boum.org/contribute/merge_policy/> for details. Do you want to carry on your work on this front as well? Thanks for your contributions! -- Ague
