History

#1 Updated by BitingBird 2014-07-13 16:12:39

  • Priority changed from Normal to Elevated

Raising priority, as it’s a regression.

#2 Updated by intrigeri 2014-07-13 16:48:59

  • Tracker changed from Bug to Feature
  • Subject changed from Tails 1.1rc1 xul-ext-foxyproxy-standard breaks icedove > 20 to Have icedove co-installable with xul-ext-foxyproxy-standard
  • Status changed from New to Confirmed
  • Priority changed from Elevated to Normal
  • Target version set to Sustainability_M1
  • Type of work changed from Debian to Code

Installing icedove in Tails is not supported yet, so even if that’s a regression (which I doubt), we don’t care about it.

#3 Updated by intrigeri 2014-08-11 13:15:56

Note that we currently ship FoxyProxy for two reasons that could vanish:

  • directing .i2p URLs to the I2P proxy: will soon be dropped (Feature #7725)
  • having RFC-1918 URLs escape Tor: depending on how we deal with Feature #5340, it might not be needed anymore either; e.g. if we get ourselves a web browser dedicated to the LAN, or decide that the Unsafe Browser is now a supported solution to do that, and the only one

#5 Updated by intrigeri 2014-11-02 16:07:33
