sunrat Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Today's Debian security upgrades included this recommendation to upgrade Iceweasel in Squeeze; Note: We'd like to advise users of Iceweasel's 3.5 branch in Debian stable to consider to upgrade to the Iceweasel 10.0 ESR (Extended Support Release) which is now availble in Debian Backports. Although Debian will continue to support Iceweasel 3.5 in stable with security updates, this can only be done on a best effort base as upstream provides no such support anymore. On top of that, the 10.0 branch adds proactive security features to the browser. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I don't use Iceweasel. I really don't care for it. It's ugly. But I do need to update it. Who knows, I might like Iceweasel 10.0 ESR. I don't generally add backports repo. Is that they ONLY way to get it? Can't we get Iceweasel 10.0 ESR .deb pkg and use dkpg to install it?

You could do that, but then you wouldn't get any updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
