Firefox 5 minor update coming for Mac

Postby Antony » Tue 12 Jul, 2011 9:58 am

According to this Mozilla blog post, there will be a minor update for Firefox 5 available soon. The update will provide no additional features, but to resolve the incompatibility of Firefox 5 itself on upcoming OS X Lion, the next major Mac OS X operating system.

Mozilla blames the issue on web fonts (downloadable fonts) on OS X Lion, and they would use new set of API which seem to address the issue on OS X Lion
