Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2023 10:45:04 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+3U0Zn=aHHy2PzrQWqsGX+4EBJ1zL+eAEmoH4syR0rKobVFAA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Guix,
The icecat package description currently includes the warning:
"WARNING: IceCat 102 has not yet been released by the upstream IceCat
project. This is a preview release, and does not currently meet the
privacy-respecting standards of the IceCat project."
Why? The icecat project states [1] that since 2019 "icecat is
maintained only as source code". The "download upstream, patch with
makeicecat, build" steps are the process icecat has switched to for
their privacy-respecting releases, so I propose removing this warning.
