</I>&gt;&gt;<i> And i've found no real reason for this rebranding in the first place,

</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;From what i read on bugreports between debian packagers and
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> mozilla guys about that branding situation, the only thing that would
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> need to be done to seamonkey (actually the same would need to
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> be done for all our mozilla packages, unless we have permission
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> to use the branding, which would imply that all our modifications
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> on mozilla packages would need to be reviewed and ack-ed by mozilla
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> to get the branding permission) would be to use --disable-official-branding
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> configure option.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Ping?
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>Pinging again, because nobody replied. This should also be discussed
at next packager meeting, together with the situation according the branding
of other mozilla packages. Because we have branding enabled, which we shouldn't
have as we can't use branding AND have modified builds (different than upstream
tarball)
without approval of all modifications from mozilla.


For reference, here's the upstream report i was talking about, which i've
recently found again:
