246797 - Bring back official GTK1 builds.

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Adam D. Moss]

I noticed that 0.9rc wasn't available in GTK1 flavour at all, there's no sign of
a 0.9 GTK1 build, and the GTK1 nightly builds seem to have ceased to exist a few
days ago.  Whether this was intentional or an oversight, I'd like to see
official GTK1 builds return.

It was intentional.  http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=84249

Thanks.  Ah... that's very sudden, and a shame.

I wasn't much for gtk2 stuffs myself, but I think I've gotten all my
font(&theme)-related problems figured out now.

Maybe there's some bits you just need to customize?

I had a busted theme, so the menus looked aweful, lastly it was just fonts that
bothered me about gtk2 builds. Generally speaking, the widgets in gtk2 seem to
be quite a bit larger, which I don't care for much, but I can deal. :P

I guess if it's easier/less work for everyone else, that's important. No need to
spend all kindsa time workin on gtk1 builds if everyone's migrating to gtk2, yee?
