Linux Mint Inks New Deal with Mozilla
Linux Mint and Mozilla have signed a new partnership deal. Announced today, the commercial tie-up means Firefox will continue to remain Linux Mint’s default web browser but, crucially, no longer ship with Mint-specific customisations. Don’t panic unnecessarily; Mint say Firefox will continue to be distributed as a .deb package via the official Linux Mint repositories. But the way it’s built will change change. Current versions of Linux Mint ship with Firefox by default but it’s a customised version of Firefox that includes settings, search engines, and start pages that deviate from the ones found in “vanilla” Firefox. With this deal:
