Changelog

Version: 11.0+build1-0ubuntu4 2012-04-10 20:06:56 UTC

firefox (11.0+build1-0ubuntu4) precise; urgency=low

  * Update globalmenu-extension to 3.2
    - Fix LP: #915888 - Handling of checkbox menuitems with a command
      node is completely broken
    - Make uGlobalMenu::RemoveMenuObjectAt work correctly when removed items
      are not contiguous
    - Don't try to recycle an item that wasn't a separator as an item that is
      a separator, as this breaks the menu (we already ensured that the reverse
      of this couldn't happen)

Version: 11.0+build1-0ubuntu2 2012-04-02 12:07:10 UTC

firefox (11.0+build1-0ubuntu2) precise; urgency=low

  * Update globalmenu-extension to 3.0.1
    - Reduce our memory footprint a bit, which wasn't really a lot anyway
    - Avoid the use of the component manager for accessing commonly used
      services, where "commonly used" means "accessed when building every
      menu item". This should save some CPU cycles when building or
      refreshing menus
    - Try to recycle menuitems when they are removed from a menu by
      adding contiguous blocks of removed items to a "free list" which
      is emptied asynchronously, and reusing the items in this list when
      new items are added in place of the removed items. This means that
      refreshing the history menu contents when the menu is opened no
      longer alters the menu structure, but results in a shifting of
      properties between existing nodes instead. This has a few benefits:
      + With no layout changes, unity-panel-service doesn't request
        the entire menu structure, which significantly reduces dbus traffic
        and makes it much faster to refresh the menu contents
      + The size of the menu doesn't change when it is refreshed, which
        eliminates the flicker that used to occur when opening the history
        menu.
      + The HUD can refresh our menus now without triggering layout updates
        (assuming that menu layout really hasn't changed, eg, by adding
        a bookmark)
    - Remove all use of the global observer service for sending our own
      internal notifications around
    - Clean up the way we ensure that the correct edit commands are
      enabled by just installing our own popupshowing handler rather
      than using an additional notification to fix things up after the
      default handler runs
    - Get rid of a static initializer
    - Don't support older than Firefox 11
    - Fix some GError leaks
    - Hide the internal menu when creating a native menu, rather than
      waiting for confirmation that the native menu is registered
      successfully. We don't try to create a native menu if we don't
      find a menu service to register the menu with anyway
    - Keep menu contents updated whilst the menu is open, rather than
      just whilst it is opening

Version: 11.0+build1-0ubuntu1 2012-03-13 18:03:03 UTC

firefox (11.0+build1-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_11_0_BUILD1)

  * Clean up search plugin installation now that we build our own
    language packs:
    - Drop the recursive symlink from /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins,
      which lintian kept complaining about
    - Don't effectively symlink distribution/searchplugins to searchplugins,
      as they have different layouts and this avoids the same data being
      iterated over twice
    - Revert to the upstream layout in distribution/searchplugins
    - Simplify distro-locale-searchplugins.patch, as we don't need to swap the
      loading order of common / locale-specific searchplugin paths now.
      $LIBDIR/distribution/searchplugins/common is no longer a symlink
      to $LIBDIR/searchplugins, so there is no need to have the ability for
      locale-specific plugins to override common ones. They already override
      those in $LIBDIR/searchplugins
      - add debian/firefox-locale.preinst.in, which will end up in all
        language packs to assist the symlink -> folder transition
      - update debian/firefox.dirs.in
      - update debian/firefox.install.in
      - update debian/firefox.links.in
      - update debian/firefox.preinst.in
      - update debian/patches/distro-locale-searchplugins.patch
      - update debian/rules
  * Fix LP: #807733 - Firefox doesn't restart after upgrades where the version
    changes. Don't include the version number in the install path, as Firefox
    cannot re-exec itself. In doing this, we also move the distribution.ini
    back in to our installation directory, as that never made sense in
    /usr/lib/firefox-addons
    - update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
    - update debian/firefox-dev.links.in
    - update debian/firefox-locale.preinst.in
    - update debian/firefox.lintian-overrides.in
    - update debian/firefox.preinst.in
    - update debian/rules
  * Expose distribution/extensions in /usr/lib/firefox-addons, to allow
    administrators to add extensions that they want to add to default user
    profiles, and that they want the addon manager to keep updated. We lost
    this functionality when upgrading from Firefox 3.6, due to the loss of
    /etc/firefox/profile
    - update debian/firefox.dirs.in
    - update debian/firefox.install.in
    - update debian/firefox.links.in
    - update debian/firefox.postinst.in
