Recently I replied to a thread here
https://trisquel.info/en/forum/im-leaving-trisquel explaining that I started
taking fridays off to work on Trisquel, and that I would start posting weekly
updates on that progress. Last week I couldn't do it, but today I spent the
day making very necessary fixes to the make-firefox helper script:
https://devel.trisquel.info/trisquel/package-helpers/commit/136de3d30f2209bd808cd0011f94be5a270fd11f
It corrects the looks of the about:home page, eliminates some links to
Mozilla pages, and disables Pocket integration. More importantly it fixes the
build, so we should be getting updates very soon.
My next step will be to work on the kernel package for Flidas (Trisquel 8),
which is necessary to create the build jails for Jenkins. With that step
done, volunteer contributions will start to build, and I'll get into the task
of cleaning the merge request queue.
You can help by testing the new Abrowser packages as soon as they hit the
repos (it should happen overnight), and report back if I missed anything. You
can follow the build at
