This is one of those nice threads where I find myself agreeing with everything on both sides... but a note on modding Firefox though, that is a bit of a fraught issue. Some entity (Mozilla Foundation or somesuch) owns the "Firefox" trademark, and they disallow you to change the Firefox sources *and* continue to use the Firefox (TM) name on it. Fedora already interface with that requirement by getting any patches "approved" by some bloke at Mozilla before they can ship it, other distros have said "to Hell with that" and changed the name so they don't have to comply with any Trademark license. I think the most consistent solution would be to redirect to a fedoraproject.org page when you click that button, which can generate the best current knowledge for getting you going based on the information for the missing handler from the browser and your Fedora version, and so on. But the Mozilla folks might not allow traffic to be directed somewhere else. -Andy -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
