Releases: MrFlyingToasterman/get-waterfox
get-waterfox 1.9
A problem with the automatic update function (-u flag), which broke the download of the update tar-ball, was solved.
get-waterfox 1.8
Fixed support for new Waterfox Classic
Fixed support for new Waterfox G4
get-waterfox 1.7
Added testrun feature
With testrun you can check whether the new downloaded version of waterfox works on your system.
I added this function because there have been problems with the dependent libraries recently. Many users had an outdated glibc and could no longer use waterfox after the 2020.01 update. I recommend all users to do a test run before installation. The whole thing goes like this:
Download Waterfox Tarball:
get-waterfox download
Test if everything works as it should on your machine:
get-waterfox testrun
When Waterfox is running, it can be safely installed or updated
get-waterfox install
get-waterfox 1.6
Added advanced target support
This means you can now choose which version of Waterfox (classic or current)
you want to install and manage with get-waterfox.
get-waterfox 1.5.2
Removed x-scheme-handler/ftp from /usr/share/applications/Waterfox.desktop
because of a known Nautilus bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/1791283
You need to reinstall Waterfox in order to get rid of x-scheme-handler/ftp.
Since now get-waterfox install
will no longer provide Waterfox as ftp handler!

get-waterfox V1.1
Since MrAlex94 (the original developer of Waterfox) did not syncronize his browser versions on GitHub with the version on his site, a new way to download the latest Waterfox had to be found.
In this version I use wget and grep to scrape the link from his page without the GitHub API.
