Don't want to jump the gun, but I just made a pull request with initial support for White Star on 10.5 PowerPC.

It doesn't quite work yet, but it builds successfully and everything but the browser itself is working.

Is there interest in a modern browser for those old PowerMacs?

  Pale Moon 32.3.0 will not extract from .dmg
Posted by: Goodydino - 07-11-2023, 06:52 PM - Forum: White Star - Replies (6)

Operating system:MacOS 12.6.3
Browser version:32.3.0
32-bit or 64-bit browser?:64 bit

I cannot extract Pale Moon version 32.3.0 for Intel Mac from the .dmg file.  I get this error:
"some data in “Pale Moon.app” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)"

I was able to extract White Star 32.3.0, so I guess that means that I need to go back to White Star?

  White Star testers required
Posted by: dbsoft - 06-27-2023, 08:23 PM - Forum: White Star - No Replies

I need to test several future changes coming to Pale Moon.

My current Pale Moon Intel build system is running MacOS 13 Ventura with Xcode 14...

I have tested MacOS 14 Sonoma on ARM with Xcode 15 beta and everything worked.

However when I attempted to build on Intel with Xcode 15 beta I had issues with the 10.12 SDK I had been using.

The 11.3 SDK I use on ARM built successfully.  I also am still trying to unify the packaging on both ARM and Intel.... due to problems some people encountered when using the ARM packaging on Intel, I have been using the old packaging code on Intel. So I need some people to test these new White Star builds.... they are built with the same SDK and packaging as ARM.

I need people to make sure there are not any behavior regressions by upgrading the SDK, and I want to see if people are still having problems with the packaging. I am hoping the updated SDK will prevent the problems I had with the new packaging.

Download White Star 32.3.0 Intel Mac Beta

Will probably have some follow-up builds to test depending on the results.

When did the Pale Moon forum start using Cloudflare?  Why?  I cannot even reach it any more.  All I get is a Cloudflare page that says "Connection timed out".

Release Notes

This is a major step forward for compatibility.  If you have had troubles with any sites, now is the time to try them again.  Somewhere between 80 and 90% of the problematic web sites were fixed or at least made usable in the last 3 months.

Posted by: dbsoft - 04-18-2023, 06:52 PM - Forum: White Star - No Replies

Pale Moon 32.1.1 has been released! This is a bug fix, security update.

Please head to the download page to get the latest releases.

The Intel version is codesigned but not notarized because Apple now requires 10.9 target for notarization (we target 10.7).  Please visit the Pale Moon Forum and vote if you want the version bumped to 10.9 so it can be notarized.

The Apple Silicon (ARM64) version is both codesigned and notarized.

I am requesting input about notarizing Pale Moon builds on the Pale Moon forum.

https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=29707

If you can go there and give me your response... if you don't have an account there you can post your response here too.

Thanks!

I have started doing official builds of Basilisk for MacOS, FreeBSD and ARM64 Linux...

Download them from the Basilisk site!

Release notes.

Fixed some minor issues in the processes of engineering this release.  Fixed drawing in the titlebar with later versions of MacOS, so it doesn't need the theme modifications that Silver had been using. Fixed WebRTC support on FreeBSD and fixed JPEG-XL support on ARM64 Linux.

Enjoy!!

Pale Moon 32.1.0 has been released! It is a huge step forward in Web compatibility.

Please head to the download page to get the latest releases.

I am no longer releasing dual branded versions with White Star.  White Star branded versions will now be my experimental Mac builds where I try out new Mac (or FreeBSD) specific features and updates.

I spent the money that people have donated for Mac development to get the Mac builds notarized with a developer account. This should alleviate some of the issues people had with the builds getting quarantined after downloading. Thanks to all who donated and if you want them to remain notarized please continue to donate, since this will be a yearly expense.
