You're comparing apples and oranges, here, because your solution (which is perfectly fine, by the way, for those who are happy with it: I do something very similar for myself) doesn't compile Firefox from source and is specific to amd64, Debian needs to do something that works for all 9 architectures we support. We also apply 22 patches (currently) to the source tree, every patch needs to be individually checked and possibly removed or rebased for on every version update. And a substantial chunk of the work is in getting the (new) build dependencies sorted out. -- Please do not CC me for listmail. 👱🏻 Jonathan Dowland ✎ jmtd@debian.org 🔗 https://jmtd.net
