At the beginning of 2011, Firefox was at version 4. Just under 2 years later it's at version 17/18. If they continue at this rate I predict a worldwide shortage of numbers.

I have very much free time these weeks.

+1

I just upgraded my firefox from 17-beta to 18-beta (on Windows XP!) and the speed increase is noticeable!

Note: recent changes fixed the mess created by invalid inclusion of some header files in case of non Maemo builds:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=814979

I.e. any kind of ifdefs shouldn't do this kind of stuff:

Code:
#if !defined(MOZ_PLATFORM_MAEMO)
#include "GLXLibrary.h"
#endif
It's very incorrect, since for example Mer builds don't use GLX, they use EGL.

I can't download fennec_17.0_armel.deb, I get 404 error.
I also heard that is has problems with post-removal script, at least with purge option, and maybe others too, but I can't confirm that as I can't download it.

I never got to install Fennec 17, with all these script problems, even though I have downloaded it when it was available. I also have Fennec 16 deb saved, and I am currently using Fennec 16.
I cannot guarantee that Fennec 17 deb isn't corrupt, though. It seems to be much smaller in size than Fennec 16 deb.
The debs are too large to attach directly (about 16MB each). Here is the link.
Best wishes.

Try having a window of fennec open while purging it.
Best wishes.
