Did it actually require a patch? I thought it just required a certain env var set, so they probably could have just made a wrapper script that set it and invoked the binary (located somewhere other than /usr/bin/firefox), which I'd expect is very minimal packing step compared to patching the code for building
- capableweb 3y agoI don't read "patch" as necessarily a "source code patch" per-se. Even if they just add/modify one line in the build script, I'd say that particular distribution of the Firefox application to be "patched".
- saghm 3y agoI think almost every single distro's Firefox would be patched by that definition. Pretty much every package format requires at least one line of shell script to be invoked in some fashion.
