Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unpack FF3 on an Etch system 2. run the FF binary 3. observe the error message dialogue I consider dropping platform support "in the middle of the game" to be a design/policy/process bug. It will prevent me from upgrading to FF3 for at least half a year, should Lenny arrive quickly enough to make it half a year only.

always include the error messae in a bug report.

In the middle of the game? We publicly proposed these requirements more than a year in advance of release. Based on what the distros recommended, no less! See http://steelgryphon.com/blog/?p=101 for more details...

Yes, you "publicly" announced the "requirements" (or rather ideas, at that stage), in a place only an insider to the Mozilla environment would discover, and you don't find it worth a single word to mention how the questions posed there were invalid right from the start (ie, asking only Ubuntu and not Debian). FWIW, the mentioned article contains not a single bit of explanation about what these "reasons" you considered in your decision, actually were. But I'm almost used to Mozilla catering for the "main stream only", and am looking forward to the day when it will support Windows, and maybe Mac OS-X, exclusively.
