Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kazehakase
See:

>From the spec:
"Reduce in-archive reverse dependencies to a minimum
Not backporting security fixes, but upgrading to new firefox branches
would come with a considerable effort for backporting reverse
dependencies in the archive. To keep this approach sustainable the
ubuntu archive needs to be reviewed and only the most important packages
can be kept."
Ideally, gecko users viewing insecure content should be ported to
webkit, but if not, they need to work with the latest version of
xulrunner, and would need to be ported to each new version introduced to
the stable release. kazehakase has a webkit backend, but that is
completely non-functional at the moment and maintaining the gecko
backend is likely to be a substantial burden.
The packages have no rdepends and don't score that highly on popcon.
