The glibc tweak is set in order to run the included flashplayer 24.0. Used tahr's up-to-date glibc. The package overwrite defaultbrowser to use firefox as default browser.

Evening, all.

I've gone and done it again, haven't i?

I'm pleased to offer a 'portable' version of this 'tweaked' Firefox ESR release. Works exactly like all the others:-

- Unpack the tarball
- Move the enclosed 'firefox32' directory to a location of your choice (preferably outside the save-file/folder, naturally!)
- Launch by clicking on the 'ff' script inside.

First run will create the 'profile' directory, then create the profile inside it. Subsequent runs will start the browser, always using this same profile.

------------------------------------------------------

I hope watchdog doesn't think I'm following his work around..! I use these exact same browsers on a day-to-day basis myself in certain Pups, only in 'portable' mode. It's as a tribute to his work in adding the glibc 'tweak' that I wanted to offer other Puppians the opportunity to use them in this way.

FF45.9.0esr_glibc2.19_tweak-portable can be found at my Google Drive, here:-

Enjoy.


Mike.
