If you do not want to go through the build process, I have uploaded the resulting icecat-52.3.0. package here, but without ANY warranty about the contents and security, and privacy and everything that you REALLY should care about when you install new software on your machine. I decided to try with the latest version of IceCat (52.3) on my High Sierra machine, and here are the amended instructions. I wrote to the FSF back to tell them that if they wanted to promote better solutions for macOS users, it would be more effective if the solutions were actually available, either as binaries, or as instructions to build the software.Īfter checking a bit further, I found this page with instructions to build an 11 months old version on El Capitan: A way to build IceCat 45.5.1 on MacOS El Capitan. Update: It looks like there are builds of IceCat for the Mac, up to version 38.8.0 (released in May '16) on that page. The only thing I could find was the FTP server, with builds for Linux. The problem is that the links did not point at any binary or downloadable package. I'm not a super fan of Mozilla stuff, but if it's GNU, then why not. I was interested and checked the provided links to see what that browser was. The other day I received a general mail from the Free Software Foundation informing me that even if Safari on High Sierra had pretty good privacy and security features, IceCat, the GNU version of Firefox, was even better.
