Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] Repository for debian

[zach wick]

Hi there,

I don’t think there has ever been an official Debian package of GNU IceCat, but I may be wrong. I do know that Debian uses the IceWeasel project as their main web browser, but I’m not sure where exactly that comes from.

I did write up something once upon a time on how to install GNU IceCat on Debian Wheezy, which you can find at https://zachwick.com/posts/install_icecat_on_debian_wheezy/ and it may be of some use to you. I suspect that all of the steps remain the same, but you’ll obviously need to use the name of the latest version of IceCat instead of “icecat-17.0.1”.

I hope that this helps, and please do let me know if you run into any issues and I’m happy to help you get them sorted out.

Good luck and happy hacking,

zach

Dear gnu icecat project managers, I congratulate you for your work and initiatives, I am trying to install it on a pc with debian but I could not find updated information on whether there is availability of any repository that allows you to install it.
I have tried some that review other websites although some time ago, but are not available.
I would appreciate so much if you have one could indicate me to add it to the sources.list of my distro.

Thank you very much, sorry for the inconvenience, to continue with such an incredible program.
