test 32-bit Linux TBB with Firefox optimizations re-enabled
by Erinn Clark 29 May '13

29 May '13

Hey everyone, We've been hearing from people for a while that the FF 17.0.x bundles are unusably slow because we disabled optimization during build time. The reason we did this is because building on Debian Squeeze resulted in a strange build crash. I re-built all of the stable 32-bit Linux TBB on Wheezy, with optimizations re-enabled, and would appreciate it if any of you could test it. I'm specifically worried about backwards compatibility, so if any of you are running older Linuxes (like anything CentOS, for example) I'd love to hear if you have any problems. Likewise, for modern Linuxes, please let me know if the usability problems have gone. The package is here: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/stable/tor-browser-gnu-linux-i686-2… sha256sum: ed94e886207aa727dd0d7693f9a45beef232dfb3f9df2281ba72961dc6a92e04 tor-browser-gnu-linux-i686-2.3.25-TEST-8-dev-en-US.tar.gz There's no rapid time limit on this one -- I just need to get some feedback before upgrading all of the build systems, so being as thorough as possible is great. Thanks very much! Erinn

New stable & alpha bundles with Firefox 17.0.6esr
by Erinn Clark 14 May '13

14 May '13

Hello lovely testers, Sorry to send new bundles so soon but just as I was preparing to release the last ones, there was a new Firefox release. Not much has changed here -- I updated the stable HTTPS Everywhere to 3.2 and the alpha version of NoScript, along with Firefox in both. I suspect just a quick once over is enough, but making sure Firefox is still not crashy is probably a good idea. stable ------- Packages: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/stable/2.3.25-8/ sha256sums: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/stable/2.3.25-8/sha256sums-2.3.25-8… Turnaround: 24h alpha ------- Packages: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/alpha/2.4.12-alpha-2/ sha256sums: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/alpha/2.4.12-alpha-2/sha256sums-2.4… Turnaround: 24h Thank you!

Pluggable Transports bundle 2.4.11-alpha-2-pt1 on OS X
by Lunar 11 May '13

Hi! If someone has access to an OS X system, I would be grateful if you could test if the last pluggable transports bundle works: TorBrowser-Pluggable-Transports-2.4.11-alpha-2-pt1-osx-i386-en-US.zip One user is reporting me that after unpacking it in a brand new directory, Vidalia connects, but Firefox complains that it can't reach its proxy. This user also reports that the previous bundle version is working as it should. Thanks, -- Lunar <lunar(a)torproject.org>
