Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
 
I compiled the latest Fennec and uploaded it to my custom repository. My goal for this repository is to gather the software, necessary for the use of cryptographic smart cards on Maemo 5 in one place.
I'll try to keep Fennec up-to-date.

If you're interested please check here.

This is the first time I build Firefox, so I might have missed something.
Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

Updates
  • 10.10.2012 - Fennec updated to version 16.
  • 22.11.2012 - Fennec updated to version 17.

Well, latest is 17 and even thumb2, tree-vectorized, graphite, etc -compiled with gcc4.7.2-linaro it is still a memory hog.

You may want to join #maemo and ping me or zeq, we're trying to bring usable upstream fennec to Fremantle for the last 2-3 months, another helping hand will be of use :)

EDIT:
Nice to see another guy from Bulgaria here :)

I have tried your fennec build. Kind of like it. Loads fast except has no portrait orientation. Keep up the effort.

Thanks for your feedback. I'll look into it.

I have also installed your version of fennec. Works reasonably good, although I haven't played with it a lot (gmail, google reader, talk.maemo.org -- all seem to work fine :)

Add.: this package is NOT optified (which I generally find good). In this case, Fennec takes about 35MB off the root partition. So any testers may want to check if that's OK.

ok, that was a bit of a disaster. the fact that it wasn't optified caught me out.

i had fennec 12 installed and that wasn't so bad.

my question is: is there anyway to get an optified version of 17(or 18 ) without going the cssu/thumb2 route. i've just put too much effort in to my phone at this point to blatently risk a reflash to back something out.

I updated the version of Firefox to 16. It's now optified.
