TenFourFox FPR30 SPR1 available

With the Quad G5 now back in working order after the Floodgap Power Supply Kablooey of 2020, TenFourFox Feature Parity Release "30.1" (SPR 1) is now available for testing (downloads, hashes, release notes). As noted, this is almost entirely a security update and there are no user-facing changes except to wallpaper crashes on Apple discussion pages, another instance of the infamous issue 621 ("Assertion failure: slotInRange(slot)") which affected LinkedIn and is probably the same JavaScript library getting, uh, linked into something else. Hopefully this gives me a little more to work with debugging it. Assuming no problems, FPR30 SPR1 goes live on Monday evening or Tuesday Pacific time parallel with mainline Firefox 85.

  1. Cameron, did you intentionally drop this small file into the FPR30 SPR1 downloads directory tree?:

    1. No, that came from a blown upload with the wrong filename. I've removed it. Thanks.

  2. Hi! First, thank you for your hard work on TenFourFox!
    I have a question: Is it normal that an iMac G5 2ghz with 2gb of ram completely crawls when visiting te phoronix.com tech news website?
    I don't remind if it happened or not with previous releases.
    Thank you!

  3. Greetings.
    Will there be FPR30-i386.tar.gz and future releases? I realize these have been provided by a contributor in the past and they have been most useful for me.
    I thank you in advance.
