Isn’t Devuan a fork of Debian?  I’d imagine using the 68 branch of the
official upstream gnuzilla.git repo [0] would be easiest, since it was
primarily developed on Trisquel, an Ubuntu derivative, itself a Debian
derivative.  I’m curious to hear why instead go through the hassle of
porting Antonio’s version for Fedora for use on Devuan?  To be fair, I
haven’t had a chance to have a close look at Antonio’s repo, so I’m not
sure how much it’s diverged from the upstream gnuzilla repo.
