I've been using GNU Icecat Browser (libre Firefox version made by Gnuzilla) for some weeks. I've been diving through its menus and I found an error:
When I get into the 'Customize Mode' (the one that lets you organize your toolbars and stuff), I find a little drop-down menu saying 'Themes', and an option called 'Get More Themes' inside it.
If I click it, it will redirect me here, which will return an error. I want to modify the line of code of that redirection, in order to fix that URL, but I can't find it with grep -Rli /icecat/addons/ /usr/share/
. Maybe am I searching in the wrong folder? Maybe the command is wrong?...
Awesome! I found another solution a while ago: the 'defective' URL seems to be in a place I couldn't find, but assuming Firefox and Icecat share some folders, I started looking for /browser/app/icecat.js, which didn't exist. Instead, I found a .js file in which you can add custom preferences to Icecat, so I added a firefox theme pref Iine and saved the document. Worked like a charm, I'll keep tweaking it tomorrow. By the way, I want to publish the solution I reached in the official Gnuzilla mailing list. Do you want to be given credit for having helped me? – xvlaze – 2016-02-26T00:05:23.550
@xvlaze It sounds like you mostly managed to get the solution yourself, so I don't think you need to credit me. – fakedad – 2016-02-26T04:04:29.763
