Guys I install Trisquel 7 a week ago and I am facing a few issues which are as follows:

1) When you purge Icecat why cannot you reinstall it, also why is it not in the repo?

2) Are we dropping Abrowser for GNU Icecat ? If not then why isn't it installed by default ? Cannot we keep an option to Install Icecat if we require extra privacy etc.

3) The idea of Tor in Private Browsing just sucks are the version of Tor provided by the distro is usually older and is not recommended by Tor Project itself also it would install tor and run it as a service for everyone, even for people who do not require it at all ( also it is misleading log free private browsing, as sometimes tor node might even mess up their web services as most of the tor nodes are Spam-zone.

4) I cannot remove any items just add them from the taskbar ( Panel in the bottom ) Kindly fix it

Thanks!
:]

I used LinuxMint17 and something I liked about it was the ability to encryption of the hard drive with a password the start up as well as the user password and the home folder. Can you please do this on your new 7.
PLEASE.

I can answer No 2, Yes, Ice cat is now the default browser as maintaining A-browser was a little ineffcieint as it was duplicating work that Ice cat had already done.

Better to just put all efforts into a single program when possible.

Alright but there is no Icecat in the repo; Once you remove it, it is gone; then you can only download the abrowser which is also outdated one.

It seems people expect Trisquel 7 to be fully polished and functional. People, please remember these two points:

1. Trisquel 7 is not finished yet.

2. If you find stuff missing/incomplete/outdated/whatever else see point 1.

I put it on my Laptop and encrypted my hard drive very nice. I enjoyed the graphics look cool. Then when it was running i attached a usb hard drive which had been encrypted it asked for password then it not show the drive and I could not find it.

I understand its about point 1. But its just a note to those who are the Code Warriors here. I salute you!
