Hi there.
Both thunderbird and firefox have branding issues
and recommend non free plugins, so free distros
can't provide them but have compile another package
based upon it.
For parabola we were providing icecat, but the delay
between firefox releases and icecat's causes some
troubles with our repo.
So we are thinking about compiling an unbranded
browser like trisquel.
The branding is not an issue for free distros, but something we have to
take into account because of the non-free plugins problem.
Also, we haven't changed links for thunderbird, so
we ask for your mozconfig for compiling both
projects and any patches you apply if any, or any
instructions that may be helpfull.
For gNewSense we grab the debs directly from GNUzilla, so we don't
compile it ourselves. For Thunderbird we just make a small configuration
change. The LibrePlanet page references the gNewSense bug report [1]
which has some more info.
