|
|
I'm not sure this is the right place for this, I looked at other forums and none seemed to match.
The current version of Mozilla is 1.0r3, here at work I'm using 1.2a.
Normally I wouldn't care, except one of my favorite features was implemented after 1.0r3, the ability to open a new tab from the command line:
mozilla -remote "openurl(www.gentoo.org,new-tab)"
Previously you could only do new-window....
This makes my daily routine of comics sooooo much easier to deal with/remember.....run a script, go away while they all load and when I come back I just close tabs...
So my question is, if I want to install the newer version I can, but it won't be through emerge (unless there is a fairly easy way to do it), or I wait for the offical update.
If I wait, is there anyplace I can go to find out when the portage package will be updated?
Thanks! |

Well, 1.1a is available. Only it's masked because it breaks galeon, but if you don't use galeon then go right ahead and emerge it: Code: | cd /usr/portage/net-www/mozilla
ebuild mozilla-1.1-r1.ebuild fetch
ebuild mozilla-1.1-r1.ebuild unpack
ebuild mozilla-1.1-r1.ebuild compile
ebuild mozilla-1.1-r1.ebuild install
ebuild mozilla-1.1-r1.ebuild qmerge
emerge clean |
