      Changes since 1.5.dfsg-4ubuntu6:
      * New upstream version (1.5.0.1) - security and stability fixes,
        allegedly. (About 7000 lines of diff, so not reviewed for Ubuntu.)
      * Fix Norwegian translation in .desktop file.  (Malone #30603.)
      * mkdir /usr/include/mozilla in firefox-dev.preinst to avoid
        maintainer script sometimes preventing installation.
      * Move the shlibs needed for gtkmozembed to /usr/lib (avoids
        need for rpath and nonsense in firefox-gtkmozembed.pc).
      * Work around new GNU make braindamage by adding seddery to
        security/coreconf/rules.mk.
    
      Expected-permanent differences between Ubuntu and Debian:
      * Build nspr and nss for use by all other programs in the distribution
        (Packages: libnspr-dev, libnss-dev, libnspr4, libnss3.  Fairly main
        changes to parts of the build system.)  This is so that mozilla
        can be in Ubuntu universe.
      * Disable xprint.  (xprint is not used in Ubuntu.)
      * Slightly different arrangements do with with transitional arrangements
        related to package renaming from mozilla-firefox-*.
      * Removed transitional packages mozilla-firefox-dom-inspector and
        mozilla-firefox-gnome-support (not needed in Ubuntu).
      * Build firefox-dev; applications which embed a browser in Ubuntu
        generally embed Firefox rather than mozilla.  This also means that we
        build firefox with dynamic linking so that embedders and load ff.
      * Debian package search replaced by Ubuntu package search (and defaults
        to searching only in dapper, not all releases).
      * Changes to various icons (and their installation paths).
      * Strip CUPS/ from the front of displayed printer names, since
        all printing in Ubuntu is done via CUPS.
    
      Other differences remaining between Ubuntu and Debian:
      * debian/rules clean removes various junk left over by the mozilla build
        system.  (Debian #350616.)
      * Exclude libssl3.so from dpkg_shlibdeps as this triggers a bug in
        fakeroot on amd64 in Ubuntu.
      * Set FIREFOX_DSP=none by default.  Will sometimes break sound from eg
        Flash.  See https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29760 for rationale.
        (Debian maintainers notified but no bug filed.)
      * Append our plugin path to any previous value of MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH.
        (Malone 29412.  Debian #351806)
      * firefox.desktop file has more translations and consistently calls the
        application `Firefox Web Browser' (for better UI in the menus - this
        change is also in firefox.menu).  Debian #351807.
      * Default printing command doesn't break if printer name contains
        spaces (actually a preference, in all.js).  (Debian #351809,
        Mozilla Bugzilla #326245).
      * security/coreconf/rules.mk adjusted with awful seddery to cope with
        GNU make change to POSIXly interpretation of backslash line-joining.
        See http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/12/msg00988.html.
        Mozilla Bugzilla #325148.
      * security/coreconf/ruleset.mk has a set -e added.
      * Use GNOME mime database instead of mailcap.  Patch imported from Red
        Hat; see debian/gnome-mime-handling.diff.
      * Change various preferences:
        - Ubuntu-specific default homepage
        - Ubuntu-specific release notes
        - default homepage can be locale-specific
        - middlebutton paste disabled
        - do not load a special home page on first start after an upgrade
        - disable File / Import (wizard is nonfunctional).
          Malone #28563, Debian #350599, Mozilla Bugzilla 117844.
        - save files to Desktop by default
        - README.Ubuntu file (still rather full of junk)
        - Prevent websites disabling the right-button context menu.
        - Default font for display is sans, but:
        - Default CSS for printing uses a serif font.

      * New upstream release. (Closes: #351442)
    
      [ Mike Hommey ]
      * debian/presubj: Added indications to try to reproduce without extensions
        before actually filing a bug, and a hint to the safe mode.
      * debian/firefox.install: added the reporter chrome files. (Closes: #344888)
      * widget/src/gtk2/nsWindow.cpp: Revert additional stale patch for
        extended mouse buttons support.
      * debian/firefox.postinst, debian/firefox.prerm: unbashified.
        (Closes: #349946)
      * debian/control, debian/firefox-gnome-support.postinst,
        debian/firefox-gnome-support.prerm: Let the firefox-gnome-support
        package provide gnome-www-browser and handle a gnome-www-browser
        alternative. Thanks Loïc Minier. (Closes: #350788)
      * debian/firefox-runner: Enable Pango support by default. The
        MOZ_ENABLE_PANGO environment variable is now useless. (Closes: #338716)
      * debian/README.Debian: Change the paragraph about Pango to hint about
        the MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO variable.
    
      [ Eric Dorland ]
      * content/events/src/nsEventStateManager.cpp,
        modules/libpref/src/init/all.js, widget/public/nsGUIEvent.h: Apply
        patch from Ian Jackson to revert a stale patch for multiple mouse
        button support that was fixed in a different way in 1.5
        (Closes: #348375)
      * debian/firefox.preinst: Check md5sum's of old conffiles before cp'ing
        them on upgrade. This won't stop all unnecessary conffile prompting in
        all situations (especially from really old versions), but should
        definitely should work for upgrading from testing or stable. (Closes:
        #345112)
      * debian/firefox.install:
        - Remove run-mozilla.sh. (Closes: #348902)
        - Reorganize things a bit.
        - Move profile into /etc/firefox here, instead of in the rules file.
      * debian/firefox.install, debian/firefox.preinst, debian/firefox.links,
        debian/firefox.dirs, debian/rules: Move chrome, defaults, greprefs
        into /usr/share/firefox for more FHS goodnesss.
      * debian/firefox.1: Document -new-tab and -new-window options, and
        remove deprecated -remote option. (Closes: #348699)
      * debian/firefox-runner: Apply patch to properly URL escape local
        files. Thanks Morita Sho. (Closes: #348451)
      * browser/app/profile/firefox.js:
        - Reallow 40-bit ciphers, since now firefox warns people who
          use them. (Closes: #349624)
        - Enable bidi UI elements for our bi-directional friends.
          (Closes: #348069)
      * debian/rules: Remove glob pattern from dh_install invocation. Thanks
        Ian Jackson. (Closes: #350571)
      * browser/base/content/aboutDialog.xul: Fix spurious scrollbar in the
        about dialog box. Thanks Ian Jackson. (Closes: #350608)
      * js/src/fdlibm/fdlibm.h: Patch to fix little endianess of
        mipsel. Thanks Ian Jackson and Thiemo Seufer. (Closes: #350621)
      * browser/base/content/search.xml: Patch from Ian Jackson to remove
        misleading Clear option from search box context menu. (Closes: #350611)
      * debian/watch: Fix regex to actually find the upstream tarballs.
      * modules/libpref/src/init/all.js: Cope better with printers with spaces
        in the name. Thanks Ian Jackson.
      * toolkit/components/passwordmgr/base/nsPasswordManager.cpp: Take patch
        from bz#235336 as suggested by Ian Jackson to allow password manager
        to work with sites that only have a password field, no username.
    
  • firefox (1.5.dfsg-4ubuntu6) dapper; urgency=low
    
    
      * Better comment regarding Import Wizard disablement, referring to
        upstream (117844) and Debian (350599) bugs.
      * Remove obsolete patch from run-mozilla.sh (which we don't use).
      * FIREFOX_DSP=none is really the default this time.  (See 4ubuntu5; it
        turns out that /etc/firefoxrc exists for no good reason and contains
        an override for FIREFOX_DSP).
      * firefox(1) manpage adjusted wrt FIREFOX_DSP.
      * Fix mozilla-nss.pc to refer to mozilla-nspr, not firefox-nspr.

      * FIREFOX_DSP=none is the default everywhere, since the crashing
        problems due to esddsp non-thread-safety appear on i386 too.
        This will break sound from Flash in some situations.
        See https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29760 for the rationale.

      * Do not put anything in, or look at, /usr/lib/mozilla and

        /usr/lib/firefox; /usr/lib/mozilla is the namespace of the mozilla/
        mozilla-browser package; we cannot conflict runtime packages like
        libnss3 and mozilla-browser as we do for the -dev packages.
      * Current libnss3 replaces older firefox package.
      * Set vendor name to Ubuntu.

      * debian/rules:
        - fix lack of libnssckbi.so in the directory the firefox browser
          expects.  (fallout from libnss/libnspr integration changes;
          Ubuntu bugzilla 21310).
      * debian/rules:
        - create a gre.conf (Ubuntu bugzilla 13750).
      * mozilla-firefox/include/{nspr,nss} (debian/rules etc.):
        - include these directories in firefox-dev, not libnss/libnspr-dev.
        - help dpkg with directory/symlink transition.

        which causes firefox to look first in the Gnome MIME handling registry
        (MIME handling is still very wrong).
      * Disabled File / Import from main menu since it does not work at all
        (Ubuntu bugzilla 10339 still applies; patch brought forward).
      * Displayed printer names no longer show `CUPS/' prefix.
        (Ubuntu bugzilla 11481 regressed; patch from Breezy enhanced).
      * Print command fixed (again) to cope with spaces in printer names.
      * Remove incorrect note about Pango from README.Debian.
      * Re-fix-up localised startup URLs in en-US region.properties.
      * Fix incorrect layout/sizing in Help / About box (a bit hacky).
      * Re-forward-port patch to fix printer names with spaces.
      * Remove all subdirectories '*.OBJ' during clean.
