Description

Since xulrunner is being deprecated in FF31, we need to start it with iceweasel --app instead of xulrunner, which will have identical results. Well, except that we need to pgrep for iceweasel --app ... (instead of xulrunner ...) in config/chroot_local-includes/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/60-tor-ready-notification.sh.

#1 Updated by anonym 2014-05-15 02:54:49

Just to be clear, we can do this migration now, as `iceweasel —app` works with our current FF24-based Iceweasel (this was how I tested it in Bug #7237).

Thanks. The patch looks good, building an ISO, will run the test suite on it.

Have you tried Tor Launcher (by opting-in in Tails Greeter for advanced Tor configuration) in an ISO built with this patch applied?
