[csw-users] Firefox on Solaris 9

[upen]

Hi,

We have a user who runs his sun blade 2000 workstation(sparc) and uses
opencsw to get updated packages for Solaris  9 installed on it.

pkginfo -l CSWfirefox
   PKGINST:  CSWfirefox
      NAME:  firefox - Firefox Community Edition web browser
  CATEGORY:  application
      ARCH:  sparc
   VERSION:  3.0.14,REV=2009.09.12
    VENDOR:  http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.0.14/source/
packaged for CSW by William Bonnet
    PSTAMP:  wbonnet at build8s-20090912223314

    STATUS:  completely installed
     FILES:     4061 installed pathnames
                   4 shared pathnames
                  45 directories
                  99 executables
              213787 blocks used (approx)


It'll be great if this version gets an update. If not, request is to
maintain it in the repo. User will not migrate to Solaris 10.

Thanks for the heads up!
