Hi, Which browser comes with 7 AppPack? If it's not IceCat, do you guys have any plans to include it?
Thanks.

App Pack currently ships with Chromium. However Bodhi has a Browser Manager with many other options to quickly and easily install a selection of other browsers. I believe IceCat is included in that selection. If not we can support you to install it here or on our discord.

No plans on including IceCat or trying to package it for Bodhi. It is also not one of the browsers installable via our web-browser-manager. I find the idea behind it rather noble but I lack the hardware to take on trying to package it. I will take note of it and maybe in the future consider it. |

Do you mean because building it from sources needs some computing power? I do have some... but I lack the knowledge to make packages.

groovy , one way to install icecat on 64-bit Bodhi 7 without building it from source yourself is using GNU guix: sudo apt install guix
guix pull # this takes a *very* long time
reboot # or maybe just logout & back in would be good enough
guix install icecat # this just takes a long time :)I had never even heard of icecat until I researched it cuz of your query, and finding a binary version wasn't easy, guix is the only real option I could find, other than a very old deb package for trisquel (v52).
