Firefox KDE support

[Jimi-James]

Sorry, I didn't realize Muon was more than the updater program. I went to the package manager and locked the versions with a right-click. Thanks for the tip.

At this point, I would say my issue with FF14 must be an extension, but going into safe mode didn't make it go away. So, I don't have any leads now.

EDIT: Double-post. The quick reply put it on page 1 and then the system moved it to page 2, making me think it hadn't been posted.

Firefox-kde-support is back with latest packages:
https://launchpad.net/~blue-shell/+archive/firefox-kde

Kubuntu team has picked up again where Canoncial dropped.

I was wondering if it would be possible to develop kind of support for Firefox themes, or a way to theme Firefox on KDE somehow independently? I mean Firefox versions change frequently so something more independent would be great.
I wish I could use Foxdie (Camino or Safari 3) theme in KDE but would be great to have a simple tool to configure it (or other themes) so that it can work regardless of official themes and Firefox versions. I am thinking about something like a new category - like Firefox KDE skins/themes.

Of course even better solution would be to integrate Gtk applications more with KDE (at least menu bar and toolbar/iconbar), so that they could use KDE theme engines, but I realize that this is not that simple.

I'm glad this issue has getting attention that it deserves. Guess this new sponsorship's paying off

sumski: It's greatly appreciate that you kept this going!
We still appreciate any help for a joint effort to keep the patching sources working with every new ff version, so anyone is encouraged to check the code out here:

You can use foxdie. Just install checkcompatability addon for firefox, enable the addon. Download the acefoxdie windows version and isntall it. It works without issue. While your at it try this theme I created to go with it.
