As others have mentioned, check the mozbranding USE flag. |

|

Any binaries that aren't from the pristine source (e.g. with any unapproved |
| 12 |
patches) that use the Mozilla Branding (i.e. the Firefox name and Icon, |
| 13 |
controlled in Gentoo with the mozbranding USE flag) are subject to the |
| 14 |
same issue that Debian saw during the "IceWeasel" debacle |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Personally, I deal with enough branding, so I leave the mozbranding USE |
| 17 |
flag off. [As a side-effect, any packages or binaries I build can be |
| 18 |
freely distributed under my choice of the GPL or MPL since they are not |
| 19 |
subject to trademark issues.] |
