After I read the licence at the Swiftfox-Page http://getswiftfox.com/ I guess the fellow would agree that swiftfox may become part of the packages of sidux.
Unfortunately that can only be done by a scripting, which reads out the processore type. Nevertheless - after the errors iceweasel has had in the last releases - it looks to me that also other users would like to have a question about swiftfox coming with the du-script. Unfortunately I am not able to write scripts which can read out hardware.

No, swiftfox or other gecko based forks will not become part of sidux. Iceweasel had its catches and we tried hard to fix them as early as possible. The renaming forced upon debian by Mozilla Corp. should be pretty much completed by now and we don't expect further regressions (and are prepared in case they do appear).

Iceweasel works just fine, when the maintainer doesnt release it with bugs. No need to add something that isn't maintained by a Debian/sidux dev.
