slackware current -> no galeon


These days the compatibility seems to be broken with Galeon. Is it the case for you ?
I hope we will see packages for Firefox soon...

Code:
xap/mozilla-1.7.3-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to mozilla-1.7.3.
  The Mozilla page says this fixes some "minor security holes".
  It also breaks Galeon and Epiphany, and new versions of these have
  still not appeared.  In light of this, I think it's time to remove
  these Gecko-based browsers.  The future is going to be Firefox and
  Thunderbird anyway, and I don't believe Galeon and Epiphany can be
  compiled against Firefox's libraries.
  (* Security fix *)

Yeah. I removed them before my last update (didn't use them anyway) Firefox 1.0 was released a few days ago I'm using it with no problems. Don't know when or if they're going to include it in the distro though.
