I am not so happy about (2) as I bet there are a bunch of sites out there that break due to sending such a weird UA and sending none is very likely breaking a lot. > > Sorry I wasn't clear -- the UA I was thinking of sending is > `Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0` > which is the UA we were sending for TBB-4.5.3. The problem I see with sending the `38.0` UA is that it gives the false impression that we support all 38.0 features. I see. The interesting thing is that ICU was already a feature of ESR 31. And switching back to ESR 31 leads very likely to users showing up here complaining about websites saying they should upgrade their browser... > I agree we could try contacting Yahoo, though I haven't found any obvious way to do so. I tried for quite some while to find a way to send them something without the need for me to have a Yahoo account. I have a case number now! We'll see if that leads somewhere. I guess what I'll do is spending some cycles on the proposed cross- compilation in the hope Jacek is fixing for us the remaining things once I got that somewhat working. :) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/16874#comment:8> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
