Camino 0.8.5 Release Notes http://www.mozilla.org/products/camino/

Camino 0.8.5 is a security update for Camino 0.8.x users running Mac OS X 10.1. Camino 0.8.5 will be the last security update in the 0.8.x series and is thus the last version of Camino to support Mac OS X 10.1.

The following changes and improvements have been made since the Chimera 0.7 release. The list of improvements and bug-fixes are too numerous to name individually.

Highlights

Since the 1.0 release, we have added the following:

  • Fixed several critical security issues. All users are recommended to upgrade.
  • Upgraded the bundled Java Embedding Plugin to version 0.9.5+d

Known issues

  • Although typing performance has improved in Camino 1.0, typing in form fields can be slow when Flash or animated images are present. Turning off animations can improve performance in some cases.
  • Shockwave Director content displays at the wrong location in the browser window when hardware rendering is enabled. Switch the plugin to software rendering to solve this.
  • Java applets on some web pages may crash on Mac OS X 10.4 in certain configurations. This can happen after a system update fails to fully upgrade all components of the system. If you experience crashes on pages that use Java applets, apply or reapply the latest “combo update” from Apple to ensure that your system is up to date.
  • Due to a bug in Mac OS X 10.2.x and 10.3.x, Norwegian users of the Camino Multilingual edition will need to manually select their desired user interface language and manually set their 'accept-language' string. To make Camino Multilingual run in Nynorsk or Bokmål, select Camino Multilingual in the Finder and choose "Get Info" from the File menu. In the resulting window, click the triangle next to "Languages:" and uncheck every language except the one desired as Camino's UI language.
    To set the accept-language string, add the string user_pref("camino.accept_languages", "nb,nn,no,en"); to your user.js file, where the languages are listed in the order in which you'd prefer them if a server can send content in multiple languages. (In this example, you want Bokmål first, then Nynorsk, then generic Norwegian, then English if none of the other three languages are available.) You may now launch Camino.
    Apple fixed this bug in Mac OS X 10.4, so no work-arounds are necessary.
