Release Notes

This is a small update to back out the changes to handling of flex containers in 31.3.0 since it caused severe usability issues on several websites.

Mac builds are now using Xcode 14.0 and the clang/LLVM 14 build tools.

I'm including a FreeBSD build in the list, while not Mac specific it is a build I started doing recently and it isn't a platform Pale Moon specifically supports, so posting it won't be stepping on anyone's toes.

I expected tomorrow, this was way quick.

Also, everything works.

Released an update to 31.3.0.1 to revert the flex container changes.  Apparently it causes issues on several web sites.

Original post has been updated with the new build links.

MacOS 13 Ventura

I finally got Ventura installed on the recent Apple Silicon Mac, I fixed the issue with the transparent windows.  However I don't have any Intel Macs with Ventura.  Could some people who have Ventura on Intel download this build and see if it functions or not.

Download for MacOS 13 Ventura

Update: Going to try to install Ventura on my Mac Book Pro, since they released an OpenCore Legacy Patcher with support for it today.

Works OK so far on Intel 2020 i7 iMac with Ventura

Thanks! I got Ventura working on my MacBook Pro, works for me too!

Hey, is there a way to get the Remote XUL Manager add-on working on this new release for Ventura?

If I try to install the add-on I get this message: "Remote XUL Manager could not be installed because it is not compatible with White Star 31.3.0.1."

For me it also fixes the transparant window problem. I'm just wondering: What was the fix? Could you please push it to a git branch?

Interesting, it is able to install on Windows but not MacOS... will check this out and see if I can get a fix in for Tuesday's release.

Thanks for the report!

Update: So I built the Ventura build with the UXP "master" branch which included changes to the dual GUID system, which necessitated changes to the front end to enable dual GUID (Firefox compatibility) which I hadn't implemented yet. That has now been implemented in the White Star "master" branch... however Tuesday's release will be built with the White Star "Release_31.3" branch and UXP "release" branches. Both ways should now enable dual GUID (Firefox compatibility) and support Ventura since Moonchild uplifted the Ventura changes. Thanks Moonchild!!
