Description of problem:

I would be nice to have firefox 49 or 50 with DRM on the final release of Mageia 6 to play Netflix or others.

I know I can install Google Chrome which works great or download firefox from mozilla and install it manually but it's not as easy for beginners.

Today I tested netflix on Firefox 50 and netflix still does not allow firefox for linux to work.. But I tested Clarovideo (Available in LatinAmerica) and firefox 50 works great with clarovideo.

It would be great to have and RPM that downloads the latest version from mozilla or use the original package from mageia with Long tearm support.

Best Regards

We'll update to the next stable Firefox (52) when it's available.  As for DRM stuff, I believe that relies on a proprietary component that we wouldn't have in the package.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID
