[MacPorts] #39023: firefox-x11 port deletion
#39023: firefox-x11 port deletion ---------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ionic@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: request | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Keywords: | Port: firefox-x11 ---------------------+-------------------------------- We should assess the user basis of firefox-x11 and remove the port, as it is highly outdated, unmaintained, a potential security risk for users and depends on deprecated software like gnome-vfs, if built using the gnome variant. People are most likely using the official, maintained and recent Cocoa Firefox version provided by Mozilla. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39023> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

As with thunderbird-x11, I'd like to keep it on the condition that it gets updated.
If you want to keep it around so badly… well, patches welcome. I doubt anyone else wants to bother. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39023#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
