      * New upstream release
        - see LP: #1080211 for USN information

        - Fix a crash that occurs when the apt cache is broken

        - Don't poll for file changes, but use inotify instead to determine
          when we need to display a restart notification

  • ubufox (2.1.1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1) lucid-security; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release v2.1.1
        - Drop the alternative plugin selector, as it depends on a patch that
          we no longer carry in Firefox
     -- Chris Coulson <email address hidden>   Wed, 27 Jun 2012 20:31:34 +0100
  • ubufox (0.9.5-0ubuntu0.10.04.1) lucid-security; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
        - Update compatibility for Firefox 13 (LP: #987262)
        - Update startpage URL (LP: #985862)
     -- Chris Coulson <email address hidden>   Tue, 24 Apr 2012 00:53:25 +0100
  • ubufox (0.9.4-0ubuntu0.10.04.1) lucid-security; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release.
        - Drop Ask.com searchplugin
        - LP: #951250
      * Refresh debian/patches/addon_installer.patch
      * Move back out of the application directory now that LP: #915895 is fixed.
        The original solution didn't really make much sense
        - update debian/rules
     -- Chris Coulson <email address hidden>   Fri, 02 Mar 2012 22:53:14 +0000
  • ubufox (0.9.3-0ubuntu0.10.04.3) lucid-security; urgency=low
    
      * Fix LP: #918052 - Error migrating extensions to be in-profile
        - Migrate the addon to a profile addon even if there is a system-wide
          addon with the same version. It seems this got broken during some recent
          refactoring.
        - For newly installed addons, display the new addon tab, otherwise the
          addon stays disabled
    
    ubufox (0.9.3-0ubuntu0.10.04.1) lucid-security; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release v0.9.3
        - Support Firefox 9 and 10 (LP: #904594)
      * New upstream release v0.9.2
        - Bump maxVersion to 8.*
      * New upstream release v0.9.1
        - Rename AboutHome to AboutStartpage, and have it handle about:startpage now
          (to not conflict with the new about:home handler in Firefox)
        - Set default home page to about:startpage
        - Add support for the XPCOM changes in Gecko 2.0
        - In the restart notifier, don't hardcode a list of filenames for different
          browser versions, but just use MOZ_APP_LAUNCHER instead. This will
          indirectly fix LP: #511250 and should prevent it from happening again
        - Merge the plugin finder code from Firefox 4. This now uses AddonManager,
          so the MinVersion needs to be bumped
        - Drop the FF2.0 specific code
        - Drop the AddonsOverlay and associated code, this hasn't worked for
          several releases since we started using software-center, and nobody
          really noticed so far. We can reimplement this at a later date if wanted,
          but it throws JS exceptions when loading in FF4.0 now
        - Specify for the extension to be unpacked by the installer. Without this,
          the prefs aren't used
        - Get the distributionID field for the pfs URL from the preferences, rather
          than hard-coding a value
        - Fix LP: #579091 - ubufox interferes with toolbar buttons for other add-ons
          Don't initialize or assign any value to gBrowser in alternatePlugins.js.
          It runs in the context of browser.xul, so gBrowser will always exist
          once the browser window has loaded
        - Fix LP: #333799 - set a default dictionary language
        - Don't duplicate preferences that we're already setting in Firefox
        - Update Japanese(ja) translations (LP: #746538)
        - Fix LP: #750305 - Don't hard-code links and configs for each release.
          Rather than doing this manually for every release, we add a dist.js with
          distro information (populated at build time with lsb_release) and just
          do all this automatically.
        - Fix LP: #752364 - Plugin Finder Service never finds anything. Use the
          release info in dist.js to construct the URL, now that this got dropped
          from Firefox
        - Fix LP: #728826 - Update icons to new versions.
        - Drop the pluginGlue.js module. This didn't work, as we can no longer
          use a modules registerSelf method to use nsICategoryManager at startup,
          due to the XPCOM registration changes in Firefox 4. Instead, add
          category entries with the chrome.manifest
        - Fix LP: #709125 - User agent doesn't include Ubuntu in it so
          apt.ubuntu.com doesn't work. We add an extra X-Ubuntu HTTP header in
          requests to apt.ubuntu.com, rather than send this information out in
          every request in the UA string
    
      * Revert an upstream commit to look in the new location for the restart
        required trigger
        - add debian/patches/use_old_restart_notifier_file.patch
        - add debian/patches/series
      * Drop debian/patches/02_fix_about_home.patch - not relevant now
      * Backport a change from trunk to support installing system-wide extensions
        in to the users profile, where they will get updates directly from upstream
        - add debian/patches/addon_installer.patch
        - update debian/patches/series
      * Fix LP: #809601 - do the ubufox => xul-ext-ubufox transition. I'd already
        uploaded a backport of this previously to the firefox-stable PPA, which
        causes upgrades to versions without this transition to fail. In addition
        to this, it is required for lucid -> maverick upgrades to work
      * Move ubufox in to the Firefox application directory
      * Improve the addon installer module
