Arctic Fox
43.1 is available.
New:
Minor but recommended release.
- Download issue fixed (#165)
- several video decoder fixes
- icon fixes
- security fixes
For a full log of fixes and mozilla imported patches: (v43.0...v43.1)
I compiled a non-altivec 32-bit version of Arctic Fox
43.1 for Ubuntu
10.04 and higher (12.04, 14.04, 16.04 etc). It also works on Void PPC, MintPPC (Debian Sid), Debian PPC 32-bit, and Fienix.

g_unicode_script_from_iso15924 doesn't exist in the file
Arctic-Fox-43.1/gfx/thebes/gfxFontconfigFonts.cpp. That means, it is a new variable in the file
gfxFontconfigFonts.cpp.
I removed the code block from the 44.0 sources and it compiles further.
