* New upstream release v2.6.
  - see LP: #1080211 for USN information
  - Make the startpage work again in Firefox 17
  - Fix a crash that occurs when the apt cache is broken
  - Fix a whole bunch of memory leaks in the plugin installer
  - Don't poll for file changes, but use inotify instead to determine
    when we need to display a restart notification

63. By Chris Coulson on 2012-06-27

* New upstream release v2.1.1
  - Drop the alternative plugin selector, as it depends on a patch that
    we no longer carry in Firefox

62. By Chris Coulson on 2012-04-24

* New upstream release
  - Update compatibility for Firefox 13 (LP: #987262)
  - Update startpage URL (LP: #985862)

61. By Chris Coulson on 2012-03-02

* New upstream release
  - LP: #951250
  - Drop Ask.com searchplugin
* Move back out of the application directory now that LP: #915895 is fixed.
  The original solution didn't really make much sense
  - update debian/rules

60. By Chris Coulson on 2011-12-20

* New upstream release.
  - Support Firefox 9 and 10 (LP: #906389)
  - Fix LP: #877993 - Help -> Report a Problem does nothing

59. By Chris Coulson on 2011-10-14

Drop debian/patches/use-natty-startpage.patch so that we use the 11.10
startpage instead (LP: #874109)

58. By Chris Coulson on 2011-08-23

* New upstream release
  - Guard code running in document load handlers with try/catch statements,
    to avoid breaking the whole UI if something goes wrong
  - Remove the uAddonInstaller module entirely, as we're not actually
    using it
  - Remove the ufoxHTTPListener component, nobody is using this
  - Bump the maxVersion to 9.0a1 to run on current nightlies
* Drop the conffile migration stuff, as there is no upgrade path
  requiring this now
  - remove debian/postinst
  - remove debian/preinst

57. By Chris Coulson on 2011-07-29

* New upstream release
  - Refactor the update restart notify functionality. The scheduling for
    checking if an update has occurred has been moved in to a JS module shared
    between windows, rather than having every window set up its own timer
    and doing its own checking. Each window registers as a listener on the
    new module
  - Drop all of the ubuntuAltPlugins overlay stuff. We still retain the
    dialog for configuring plugins, but the listeners that fired everytime
    a document was loaded or tab was switched have gone. Instead, the
    information required by the dialog is created when it is launched, rather
    than maintaining a bunch of state on each content document.
  - Clean up the variables that are added to the main window global scope.
    The only variables added now are functions called by menuitem oncommand
    handlers, and these are all namespaced org.ubuntu.Ubufox
  - Hide the translate menuitem in the help menu. It makes no sense to show
    this whilst we aren't using Launchpad for translations
  - Bump maxVersion to 8.0a1

* New upstream release
  - Fix LP: #758830 - duplicate (R) strings on "Restart" button in
    Japanese (Nobuto MURATA)
  - Drop old releases from pfsdb code, and ensure we add new releases to the
    DB (Chris Coulson)
  - Bump maxVersion to 6.0.* (Chris Coulson)
  - spellchecking.dictionary should actually be spellchecker.dictionary,
    so we actually get a default spellcheck language (Chris Coulson)
  - Add support for installing system-wide extensions in to the users profile.
    This is only going to be used on Lucid and Maverick as a way to support
    existing system-wide extensions (Chris Coulson)
  - Add a new pref for changing the default homepage, by changing the URL
    provided by about:startpage (Martin Pitt)
  - Fix the startpage for en-AU, en-CA, en-GB and pt (Chris Coulson)
  - Fix LP: #542046 - Provide zh-TW translations (Cheng-Chia Tseng / kecsap)

55. By Chris Coulson on 2011-06-01

* Hard-code distro version to Natty for now to work around LP: #790617
  - update defaults/preferences/dist.js
