Basilisk 2024.05.11 Released!

Unread post by Basilisk-Dev » 2024-05-11, 16:00

Basilisk 2024.05.11 has been released!

This is a bugfix release to fix issues with the preferences panel in 2024.05.01.

This release uses the same UXP platform version as Pale Moon 33.1.0.

FreeBSD and macOS builds will be released soon. This post will be updated when they are available.

FreeBSD and MacOS builds are now available.

The autoupdate service does not currently support FreeBSD and macOS builds so a manual update is required on these operating systems.

See the release notes for more information.

See the downloads page to download the update.

Thanks for the fix. :thumbup:

Will the problems reported in the previous thread be addressed?

I'm asking because no answer was given about them.

I can confirm the problem with the thumbnails/images missing in the two first websites. The favicon of the bookmarked prontonmeme site is working fine here. I can’t test the gitlab saved password thing, as I don’t have a gitlab account and I actually never save passwords.

But I think these could be related to UXP in general, as this other issue looks to be: /viewtopic.php?f=41&p=251245.

Thank you for confirming those issues gabrgv. :thumbup:

I found another problem, the size of search bar plus the text written inside it, it's different on firefox/basilisk:

The search bar looks fine here.

I don’t know if you already done it, but I suggest you create a clean profile (about:profiles) just to test these kind of problems before reporting them ;).

I made a clean profile before. ;)

I saw it. Thanks for the link.

Found another problem, when clicking in the re-upload button a message is shown saying the re-captcha wasnt loaded and it requests to reload the page, i reloaded the page several times and nothing changed:

satrow says the link that was posted here links to a warez site.

I found a little about the problem I thought was related to the post I linked:

When I updated to v. 2024.05.01, there was some pages in which the numbers were not showing. Setting gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled to false would solve the problem. If you combine gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled = true and browser.display.use_document_fonts = 0, the numbers won’t show up (the fonts I use are size limited, i.e., bitmaps). Looks like they fallback to the Twemoji font, which doesn’t has numbers. Probably, before v. 2024.05.01, the missing font wouldn’t fallback to Twemoji, but to a more reasonable font (a system font, like Free Sans/Serif, in my case).

Considering the time when the problem started, I guess it might be related to this: https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProd ... 0298f55eb6


I worked around it by adding FreeSerif as a fallback font in my user.js file.

I found that there still is some places where it says “Firefox” instead of “Basilisk”, v.g.: https://repo.palemoon.org/Basilisk-Dev/ ... erties#L10

Soon? To most people I would think soon would have meant maybe later in the week, or maybe a few days.

What does 'soon' mean in this context?

August - September 2024?
