Summary

Release notes available here

Depends on D1096 and D1271.

Signed-off-by: Pierre-Yves <pyu@riseup.net>

Test Plan

Since this is a major version, I made some more tests than I usually do.

  • Browsed many web sites without encountering rendering problems
  • Played videos on Youtube but also on some other streaming services (I haven't checked Netflix because I haven't renewed my subscription atm)
  • NPAPI/Flash are working
  • Tried a few WebGL/JavaScript benchmarks
  • Installed some extensions.

For info

  • The config options --enable-safe-browsing and --enable-url-classifier have been removed because they are not recognized anymore.
  • The two paches added in previous version to fix Flash aren't required anymore (they were backported from FF 57.0)

is the yucky stylo workaround still required?

is the yucky stylo workaround still required?

Yep... build still fails without it.
But the bug has been resolved 3 days ago and is targeted for Firefox 58.
I could eventually back-port the patches.
