Hardly incredible - it's marked as affecting ONE person. Marking a bug as affecting is NOT the same as commenting.

If this does affect more people, perhaps they should mark it as affecting them.

Even so - there are hundreds of bugs that never get fixed.

Please understand I'm not much into Firefox inner guts
Would this issue be better taken care of in the mozilla bug tracker itself ?

When I searched for the reported errors :
https://github.com/kriskowal/q/issues/616 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1104014

I added me to the affecting list.

More people need to add themselves as being effected. It is already a confirmed bug but still unassigned.

Rican im redirecting all the ppl who are interested in LinuxPPc on MacMini g4 and on G5 from g+ and youtube here on ubuntuforums.org i hope much will be much the devs will start belive in our Machines.

Thanks plus there a few good blogs out there promoting PPC hardware on Linux. The more the word gets out the more of chance support will continue.

Fyi:

i had the problems described above on a mac mini g4 running precise.

Upgrading the firefox package to version 38 provided by the mozilla-
security ppa

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozill...ive/ubuntu/ppa

solved the problems.

I can acknowledge that the problems were solved.

Firefox 38.0 on ubuntu MATE 15.04 PPC and on Lubuntu 12.04.5 PPC:

Awesome! I was always under the impression that PPA did not work on PPC machines
