get-waterfox 1.9

A problem with the automatic update function (-u flag), which broke the download of the update tar-ball, was solved.

get-waterfox 1.8

Fixed support for new Waterfox Classic

Fixed support for new Waterfox G4

get-waterfox 1.7

Added testrun feature
With testrun you can check whether the new downloaded version of waterfox works on your system.
I added this function because there have been problems with the dependent libraries recently. Many users had an outdated glibc and could no longer use waterfox after the 2020.01 update. I recommend all users to do a test run before installation. The whole thing goes like this:

Download Waterfox Tarball:
get-waterfox download

Test if everything works as it should on your machine:
get-waterfox testrun

When Waterfox is running, it can be safely installed or updated
get-waterfox install

get-waterfox 1.6

Added advanced target support
This means you can now choose which version of Waterfox (classic or current)
you want to install and manage with get-waterfox.

get-waterfox 1.5.2

Removed x-scheme-handler/ftp from /usr/share/applications/Waterfox.desktop
because of a known Nautilus bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/1791283

You need to reinstall Waterfox in order to get rid of x-scheme-handler/ftp.
Since now get-waterfox install will no longer provide Waterfox as ftp handler!

Since MrAlex94 (the original developer of Waterfox) did not syncronize his browser versions on GitHub with the version on his site, a new way to download the latest Waterfox had to be found.

In this version I use wget and grep to scrape the link from his page without the GitHub API.
