PaleMoon (Web browser)
|
|
|
|
Pale Moon is an Open Source, Goanna-based web browser available for
|
|
Microsoft Windows and Linux (with other operating systems in development),
|
|
focusing on efficiency and ease of use. Make sure to get the most out
|
|
of your browser!
|
|
|
|
Pale Moon offers you a browsing experience in a browser completely
|
|
built from its own, independently developed source that has been forked
|
|
off from Firefox/Mozilla code, with carefully selected features and
|
|
optimizations to improve the browser's speed, resource use, stability
|
|
and user experience, while offering full customization and a growing
|
|
collection of extensions and themes to make the browser truly your own.

This SlackBuild may conflict with a SlackBuild known, here at SBo, as
|
|
"palemoon"; which repackages binaries offically released by the Pale Moon
|
|
devs. This SlackBuild attempts to, compile, build, and package, Pale Moon,
|
|
Slackware style, in a manner that conforms to official Pale Moon Linux
|
|
releases; while, at the same time, providing useful and easy ways to deviate
|
|
if desired.
|
|
|
|
To package this version of Pale Moon for installation along side any other version of
|
|
Pale Moon, (such as the before mentioned version known here as "palemoon") pass the
|
|
script the parameter:
|
|
APPEND_VERSION_SUFFIX=yes
|
|
|
|
See http://docs.slackware.com/howtos:software:palemoon for additional
|
|
tips and help resources.
|
|
|
|
Using the Oxygen theme is known to cause Pale Moon to crash; if you are
|
|
experiencing crashes, and segfaults, make sure you are not using this theme.
|
|
See the help doc link above for creative tips and workarounds.
|
|
|
|
If you are having issues with media such as h.264 html 5 video, make sure
|
|
ffmpeg is installed before compiling Pale Moon -- installing ffmpeg
|
|
afterwards may not work.
|
|
|
|
A native fork of FireFox's developer tools exists as an external add-on or
|
|
internally. Pale Moon by default ships with the developer tools internally;
|
|
if desired, do DEVTOOLS=no ./PaleMoon.SlackBuild to build Pale Moon without
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
Pale Moon's default is to build, ship, and use its own internal dictionary;
|
|
if desired, however, do USE_SYSTEM_HUNSPELL=yes ./PaleMoon.SlackBuild, to
|
|
use the Slackware system Hunspell instead. This assumes you have dictionaries
|
|
such as hunspell-en or hunspell-es installed in /usr/share/hunspell -- the
|
|
location that a few SlackBuilds at SBo install them.
|
|
|
|
If your processor doesn't support sse2 instructions or you get segfaults,
|
|
try looking in the SlackBuild for the OPTIMIZE build option (eventually
|
|
refer to the Pale Moon developers for help).
|
|
|
|
To enable debug information, pass the script the parameter
|
|
ENABLE_DEBUG=yes
|
