anyone for testing a language firefox get script? expires in one week

[gordon64]

Hi

have just rebuilt the 32 bit and a new 64 bit get script that automatically downloads the latest version ....at time of writing 39.0
but script changed to ask user to tell me which language version they want.

there are only 89 to choose from and I have slow internet so only tested the british edition.

Credits
coreplayer2 for his new and better URL download link, stolen  from his firefox-latest script.

here are the lang choices for anyone interested.

Choose the number LEFT of your language, then press enter.
If you need 2 languages you need to adduser to create a new login please.

I resisted the temptation and easier code to force the user to input the lang as not all comply with ISO standard....eg I think Greek should have been gr.....but as I don't speak any othere lang....I could be wrong. also they might not have an English keyboard.

any how, no worries if no testers. If no reply will submit in about one week.

(I am aware, experienced users can rename firefox folder and delete the bz2 file to trick the script into getting a second lang FF but I suspect most people only want to use one lang for the internet browser. Plus they need to modify the .local/bin file or repack their wolf.tcz)

good luck

drat!

just did a reboot and getting a /home/tc/firefox/firefox not found error.

local wolf was working and without reboot I had re-run script and built the wolf.tcz.....both worked.

EDIT FOUND THE ERROR

at time of build I had coreplayer2's excellent firefox-official loaded and his code creates a sym link for 64 that FF expects

# ln lib64 to lib
if [ ! -e /lib64 ]; then
   ln -s /lib /lib64
fi

I will add that to my get script later and post if it works over reboot.

thanks for reading

Naturally credit appears in script

[gordon64]

ok loading xbase.lst test of new script for local works
reboot and load tcz also works......for me.

so if any tester is interested I will pm you a dropbox txt file viewable in browser
and you choose to save it and run it from .local/bin

if not no worries I will submit in one week.

thanks for reading

This offer is now reversed. I have no plans to submit any such script.

Moderators if possible please delete this entire thread and all its posts please

I have sent an email to ask that the not working 32 bit script be deleted.

I had not realized there was confusion mainly in 32 bit land on the various get scripts there
so I think it is best the repo have only one.

thanks
