BlueGorilla

Fork of the Iceape-UXP Internet Suite. I forked this to learn how a classic Mozilla application works and also because I feel that development on Iceape-UXP is too slow. In addition to the below changes I also port patches from Borealis Navigator, Iceape-UXP, and upstream SeaMoney as needed.

Differences from Iceape-UXP

DONE

• DONE: New settings directory: ~/.bluegorilla/bluegorilla
• DONE: Replace iceape-uxp branding with new branding.
• DONE: Apply missing patches from SeaMonkey 2.49.5. Iceape-UXP was a fork of SeaMonkey 2.49.4.
• DONE: Remove Iceape-UXP user agent override
• DONE: Replace default bookmarks
• DONE: New search engines, some ported from Pale Moon, some custom
• DONE: Change version to 2.49.number of days since Seamonkey 2.49.5 released
• DONE: Backport ability to close tabs to the right from SeaMonkey 2.53.2
• DONE: Remove modern theme. I have no reason to maintain updates for a theme I don't even use.
• Done: Use the SeaMonkey addon UUID. This eases addon installation and porting.

TODO

• TODO: Fix issues when building Iceowl/Lightning calendar extension. Currently you have to install the .xpi after building, which is not user friendly
• TODO: Investigate removing the mail directory, which contains most of the Icedove-UXP code.
• TODO: Include vertical tab bar functionality
• TODO: Get a version of enigmail working properly
• TODO: Put UXP in the platform directory instead of mozilla directory
• TODO: Include fork of XPFE-classic (Netscape theme). Make this the default theme.

Build Instructions

Builds are only tested on Linux. I have not tested Windows builds.

• Copy mozconfig.sample to .mozconfig
• Edit .mozconfig as needed
• ./mach build
• You can then run the application by running ./mach run, or package it by running ./mach package

Gentoo Ebuild

There is a Gentoo live ebuild located in my UXP Overlay.
