May already be solved; both firefox and tbird went to 1.0.6-r2 very
early today.
I've gotta say, I'm getting tired of upgrading them (I saw the upgrade
to 1.0.6 two days ago, but waited; there was an upgrade to 1.0.6-r1,
which I took yesterday afternoon, and today I have to upgrade to 1.0.6-r2).
There was also an upgrade to the version of mozilla launcher in the past
day and a half; in my original emerge -uaDtv world, 1.39 was proposed, a
few hours later, when I finally got around to actually upgrading (after
another, "extra" sync), the version had been bumped to 1.45.
In any case, I'm not having any problems with firefox or tbird 1.0.6-r1
atm-- but then again, I'm not using the bins. But, amazingly, Enigmail
works out of the box on upgrade (which is a first; I usually have to
reinstall it), and I was clever enough to backup my search plugins
before upgrading (and order them in user.js, which should be
unaffected), so as soon as I upgrade (again), I should be able to put
them back and move on with my life.
I was going to post a question as to whether anybody knew how many more
revisions we're going to see to the Mozilla programs in the next couple
days; I understand heavy development, but three upgrades in three days
is a bit much even for me (since it takes an hour and a half or so to
compile each program, and further means I have to use Konq for that time
if I don't want to mess up ff by having it loaded while it's upgrading.
So I'd love to know if this is likely to settle down soon, if anybody
happens to follow the relevant development.
