At NA> the very least you can get rid of the app errors :-) Unfortunately, that's only sort of true. The important package to look at is the communicator-smotif-<version> package, which is architecture-dependent. The newest version for Debian PowerPC (in woody) is communicator-smotif-47. That's version 4.7 -- as in 4.70 -- dated April 10, 2000. Communicator was apparently being built by the LinuxPPC folks from Netscape source and converted (by Dan?) to Debian packages; the last update from LinuxPPC was 4.73, and while they've been promising newer versions (including versions with 128-bit encryption) for months, I haven't seen any movement. I currently have an aliened Communicator 4.73 RPM installed, with the Debian netscape-base-4 and netscape-base-47 packages (which supply some nice ``extras'', such as netscape-remote, along with some basic configuration files, Xresources, etc.). I don't see errors like the ones Bjorn alluded to, but I wouldn't guarantee I have the greatest browsing experience out there, either. I'm really looking forward to a stable Mozilla....
