Where are the Linux PPC builds with gcc 3.2? Install Gentoo, Yellowdog linux or
Mandrake 9.1 and build on a computer and build it!

Sorry for posting the bug twice, I thought the first one got lost. 
 
But.. what happened (is happening?) to the linux-ppc builds? 

Comment 3

[Ryan Kabel]

Same problem here, there doesn't seem to be any Linux PPC builds for any
releases after 1.4b either (there is no 1.4 final build).  If MozillaOrg has
dropped PPC support there should be an announcement and a deletion of the many
references on www.mozilla.org to Linux PPC builds supposedly availible in the
"latest" directory.
