Could we do both version 13 and version 8 so we have either available for future use as needed?

Could anyone upload version 13 to another website instead of 4shared? Don't want to create a useless account for 4shared because I want to download 1 file.

Steps how to create new version of fennec (dsc package for extras-devel):

1. Download upstream fennec tarball (tar.bz2 format) from mozilla website.

2. Create directory fennec, move upstream tarball to that directory and rename it to fennec-source.tar.bz2:
Code:
$ mkdir fennec && mv <upstream_tarball>.tar.bz2 fennec/fennec-source.tar.bz2
3. Create debian orig file from upstrem fennec tarball (orig.tar.gz):
(This means that orig.tar.gz will contains only one file - upstream tarball tar.bz2 in fennec subdir)
Code:
$ tar -czf fennec_<version>.orig.tar.gz fennec
4. Go to directory fennec, download my diff.gz file (version 7.0.1-2) from extras-devel repository:
Code:
$ wget http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/pool/fremantle/free/source/f/fennec/fennec_7.0.1-2.diff.gz -O fennec/fennec.diff.gz
5. Apply changes and remove it:
Code:
$ cd fennec && gunzip -c fennec.diff.gz | patch -p1 && rm -f fennec.diff.gz
6. Set correct version:
Code:
$ sed 's/7.0.1-2/<VERSION>/' -i fennec/debian/changelog
7. Optionaly edit mozconfig file: fennec/debian/mozconfig
Make sure that objdir is @TOPSRCDIR@/objdir and prefix and libdir is /opt

8. Create debian source package (dsc):
Code:
$ cd fennec && dpkg-buildpackage -S -sa -rfakeroot -us -uc
Note that debian/control and debian/changelog will be overwritten by mozilla script in final deb package. So editing debian/control is usefull only for adding *build* dependences and debian/changelog only for setting version. Real changelog and binary package dependences are generated by mozilla scripts!

PS: All commands should be run from top directory! (I think you understand what I mean)

Here are my two dsc packages (in extras-devel), so compare if your new has same format: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...urce/f/fennec/

As some know from #maemo I've been working on getting fennec-14b7 to build with qt/thumb2/NEON which I believe is a supported target for the JavaScript JIT (as it's what get used in the Android build) along with the features from the Harmattan build utilising qt-mobility for system integration.

So far, with a couple of code tweaks I've got it to build against libqtm-12, it's not perfect, screen auto-rotaion is off by 90º, keyboard handling isn't quite right, but it is FAST, and memory utilisation is much better than earlier builds.

I can confirm it is FAST, some benchmarks I did yesterday:

sunspider:
microb 24566 ms (device OC to 805 for both benchmarks) ,
fennec - 5670.5 ms,
my desktop-820 ms (AMD Phenom II 3.2 GHz)

I would ask some QML/qtm guru to help with screen rotation issue (MohammadAG, marxian, please )

Wow, like 4 times faster than microb, sounds really nice, rotation and kb perks sound fixable.

Keep the awesome work Zeq!

Version 13 is extremely slow for me and it slows down the entire phone. Anyone else experiencing problems or is it just my N900?
