By doing this, you're basically guaranteeing that Firefox can never participate in the code signing model. Maybe you don't care right now, but then again, maybe one day you'll want to use the Keychain APIs. -- Damien Sorresso BSD Engineering Apple Inc. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

The assumption is that you are running on Snow Leopard. I don't know anyone who shares Firefox with an older system, usually people just download it. This is the official bug that I'm working on: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=516362 and related: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=514083 Thanks, Joel --- http://wagerlabs.com _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Tk ttk::scale and ttk::progressbar broken running under 64-bit
by Matt Haffner 23 Jan '10

23 Jan '10

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hi, I filed a bug report with Apple (#7368376) back in November but haven't seen any responses on it yet. So I wanted to make a pitch here as well to fix this bug present in Tk 8.5.7 (default 10.6 through 10.6.2): https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2883712&group_id=12997&ati… It breaks the ttk::scale and ttk::progressbar widget controls when running wish as a 64-bit app with the default ttk aqua theme. The value range to screen scaling is broken due to a large-valued long to SInt32 cast, and controls are displayed pinned to the min or max range of the widget. An example script is attached below: try moving the scale slider and note that the progress bar should be increasing each 0.1 seconds. Uncomment the final line of the script to see the expected behavior using another ttk theme. A fix is included in Tcl/Tk 8.5.8, recently released, which may be an easy solution if that update could be folded in to Darwin. Alternatively, the specific bug could be fixed in Darwin's Tcl/Tk 8.5.7 by applying the following patch: http://tktoolkit.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tktoolkit/tk/macosx/ttkMacOSXTh… Thanks for any help injecting this into a release! mh -- Matt Haffner University of Wisconsin--Madison haffner(a)astro.wisc.edu Department of Astronomy http://www.astro.wisc.edu/wham WHAM Project http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~haffner/public.key PGP _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
