This is a big problem. Thanks for keeping up with the status.
I'll get into contact with the necessary people on behalf of GNU to
figure out the current status of IceCat.
But as was stated in another thread, once we _do_ have an updated IceCat
source distribution, we need it packaged for Guix, and that is quite the
undertaking. Has anyone pursued packaging modern versions of vanilla FF
in recent months?
