I might be missing the point here, but from reading Felix's previous messages, I believe he's more concerned that someone sold him a car without a jack...

It describes how to modify the binary and not the source. I'm looking to remove the EULA dialog from the source altogether, so the resulting packages do not have it. Or alternatively allow you to reject the terms but still use the program. It seems no'one has looked into this yet, so I will have a look this weekend. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Rejecting the Firefox EULA in Ubuntu
Is there an easy way to reject the EULA on the Firefox shipped with Ubuntu and still be able to use the software? Has anyone patched the source code to remove this yet? I'm not just an end-user of the software, and I do not want to mess around with licence agreements each time I want to modify parts of it that could be construed as branding. If someone has a solution right now, I'll roll a package and point to it on the Wiki. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
