Using this with TenFourFox?

[barracuda156]

@r4sas @orignal Since we have finally made i2pd build on MacOS PPC, the next question is whether we can make i2pdbrowser work with a legacy FireFox port, TenFourFox: https://github.com/classilla/tenfourfox

What will be needed for that?

(Overall, my idea is to bring i2pd and tenfourfox into Macports, adding Tor and i2p support into the latter.)

If there is no differences in autoconf.js and policies support it must work same way as with original FF.

@r4sas I tried modifying the script, and while it kinda does what it is supposed to, the resulting thing does not work correctly:

One thing, TFF does not use application.ini:

; This file is not used. If you modify it and want the application to use
; your modifications, move it under the browser/ subdirectory and start with
; the "-app /path/to/browser/application.ini" argument.
[App]
Vendor=Mozilla

RemotingName=firefox
CodeName=TenFourFox
Version=45.41.4

The build script has modifications for this file, which are irrelevant in a case of TFF. I dunno if it should be added or not.

Secondly, since there is no pre-built i2pd for macOS PPC (well, I can make one, if you wish), I have to use the one built locally in Macports prefix. Likely it can be excluded from the script altogether, since i2pd daemon can be launched directly.

Language packs are not important. I just wanna get it to work, at least in a bare minimum form, and then it can be polished and adjusted.

What would you advise? :)

Preferences, in the worst case, can be manually compared and set in accordance with what you have here (as long as they exist in TFF).
I am not sure how to go about certificates and db files for the browser (not for i2pd, that seems to work).

If there is no differences in autoconf.js and policies support it must work same way as with original FF.

@r4sas Referring to a comment by TFF developer, what is queueMicrotask?

[r4sas]

Really, idk :D Where he did find it?
