Firefox's "Australis" can best be described as "the systemd of GUI's". |

I understand that Anthony is frustrated with uclibc, and is working on |
| 30 |
replacing it with the uclibc-ng fork in the uclibc stage 3. I've run |
| 31 |
into other issues, besides gstreamer, in uclibc. Hopefully, uclibc-ng |
| 32 |
will have fewer issues. For now, I'll simply wait until the uclibc-ng |
| 33 |
stage 3 comes out. |
