I added SeaLion 32.2.1 to the Fienix Evo repo today. It's an impressive browser!

Cheers

https://github.com/wicknix/SeaLion/releases/tag/32.2.2

Changes:

Web compatibility and scripting improvements:
Implemented geometry .from* static constructors for web compatibility.
Implemented partial support for CSS calc() in color keywords.
Implemented Array "find from last" feature (findLast and findLastIndex).
Implemented Object.hasOwn(object,property).
Implemented several additional Intl API methods and functions. This improves web compatibility with sites making use of things like hourCycle, advanced DateTimeFormat, Intl.Locale, and Intl as a constructor.
Removed support for Mozilla "experiment" type extensions.
Improved the JavaScript garbage collector's sweeping. This should fix a few intermittent crashes and improve performance.
Security issues addressed: CVE-2023-37208.

Grab the SeaLion-Extras.zip for some popular compatible extensions, themes, and Flash installers (no time bomb versions)

The PowerPC Linux build is 32-bit, and was built on Debian 12. It should run on most any modern distro. (Void / Fienix)

The new version of SeaLion doesn't work on Void PPC:

Code: Select all

/sealion: /usr/lib32/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by ./sealion)
./sealion: /usr/lib32/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by ./sealion)
It isn't possible to update the libc because Void PPC is EOL. I reported this issue to Wicknix today.

I have a problem when using the AddBlock Latitude (installed from the 'extras' package) with SeaLion. Starting the browser takes unreasonable long time if the addblocker is active. I have not noticed the same with other PPC browsers.

Is there any fix for this, or is there any alternative addblocker for SeaLion? Browsing totally without an addblocker is not possible nowadays.

Hi Roland,

Wicknix has answered your questions.
Wicknix wrote: Have Roland use uBlock instead of adblock latitude. ABL redownloads the block lists every time the browser is started which slows launch times. The benefit is that the block list is always up to date. Ublock requires manually updating of the block lists and wont hamper launch times.
