Some more browsers - PC-BSD Forums

Midori and Dooble are missing from the pbidirectory. So is Epiphany.

Qtweb is a portable browser but I wonder if it would work on BSD.

Midori is installed with the XFCE desktop. A separate PBI would be useful and the ports location is www/midori.

Dooble and Qtweb are not ported to FreeBSD so will add ports requests for these.

Epiphany location is www/epiphany. There is also a www/epiphany-extensions which should probably be included in the PBI.

Thanks for the heads up. It seems like I'm the most active person lately asking for certain programs. I hope that changes.

The midori and epiphany browsers have had PBI modules created for them. Once the PBI's build, I will test them to make sure that they work before releasing them.

A Midori PBI has been released for 8.x
The 9.x PBI's are still waiting for their turn to build, but hopefully it will get to them soon.

Both Midori and Epiphany are now available in the AppCafe.
