Revision as of 15:29, 10 April 2015

Currently about 300 add-ons are listed.

Disclaimer: GNU IceCat currently using the Trisquel web browser add-ons repository. However, this repository has superseeded that repository:

  • It has been merged from the Trisquel web browser repository since 2015-03-18
  • Many add-ons have been added that is not found in the Trisquel repository.
  • Its more updated. The merge from Trisquel has been maintained which has cause many add-ons to bee either updated, removed, replaced for following reasons: incompatibility with IceCat 31.5.0 (based on Firefox ESR 31.5.0), buggy, superseeded, bad rating, not significant popular, Service as a Software Substitute (SaaSS), and known mass surveillance services (commercial cloud/social media).

The reason why you don't find these add-ons on the IceCat page is because most of them have not been approved by the FSF. This list should be merged back to the Trisquel web browser repository meanwhile to do any good.

Approved

To be listed

These add-ons are not proposed, they have been approved by the FSF. However they have not been officially listed on the IceCat page yet for unknown reasons.

  • HTML5 Video Everywhere!
  • SpyBlock

Language packs

Language packs are add-ons that let you to have more languages available for the user interface of IceCat.

To find language packs for your version of IceCat, visit http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnuzilla/, click on your version (also look in newer version of your release), then go to the langpacks directory.

Default collection

This collection includes add-ons that are part of IceCat. The collection are useful for old versions of IceCat that didn't have them installed, or Firefox users.

Also, it has been suggested in the bug-gnuzilla@gnu.org mailing list that the further versions of the default icecat installation should come without any add-ons pre-installed. This would reflect the default Firefox ESR that IceCat are forked on. For example LibreJS is still `experimental`.

This collection be compressed into a single file (say better-defaults-collection-31.5.0.xpi) with the CLEO add-on and be prompted for installation the first time a user open IceCat.
