Description : Iceweasel-KDE integration
This is an integration helper, designed to make Iceweasel work better in KDE
SC 4.
This application handles integration in the following areas:
* Getting proxy configuration
* Getting default applications by file extension, type, and protocol
* The "Open with:" dialog
* The file open dialog
* The file save dialog, with KIO network transparency
* The directory selection dialog
* Opening files with default applications
* Running applications
* Opening the default feed reader
* Opening the default mail client
* Opening the default news client
* Checking and setting the default web browser
* Showing KDE notifications on download completions
This helper application is developed for and shipped with the openSUSE
distribution. It is packaged for and included in Ubuntu. There is also a
package for it in the Arch User Repository and a Git repository to port it to
Fedora. This application appears to be the most complete, "correct", and
widely-supported solution to improving Mozilla Firefox's behavior in KDE.
Upstream development is visible at the following Git repository:
http://gitorious.org/firefox-kde-opensuse
Status of this package:
I actually have the packaging work mostly done and lintian clean; it just needs
mentor review (as I'm not a DD or DM). However, a patch to Iceweasel (mostly
XUL and XPCOM shell service files to work with KDE "the right way") is necessary
for this package to work.
