Hi,
I don't know which kind of news you expect? did you do anything?
On my side, ArcticFox, I was able to find out by bisecting (that means
about one week of compilation attempts on my PowerBook).
Built-in ICU broke and build needs to use system ICU. I have now working
build again... so a decently usable browser for basic needs.
Current Firefox has a build fix which I am not able to import yet too
divergent code base, maybe in the future.
On debian there are no issues, I made a binary available.
I did no work on Firefox, last time it didn't work. Generally on a PPC32
system I expect it to be barely usable, even if it had no bugs. On
equivalent Intel systems (e.g. a PIII) it is quite slow nowadays, albeit
usable for basic needs.
Trade-off between more usability and more compatibility.
