Hello.

I had asked this before, but I=E2=80=99m asking again because it=E2=80=99s =
really very
important. How is it possible that at the end of last year, from one
day to the next, the two best web browsers available on GNU/Hurd, Luakit
and Surf, which are very similar and based on the same scripting
language, Lua, went from working very satisfactorily to instantly
terminating when launched, with the brief output =E2=80=98abort=E2=80=99?. =
Is it
possible to investigate why this happened?.=20

In the absence of the classic browsers (Firefox, etc.) the truth is I
had a very fast learning curve with these browsers, and they worked
well for almost everything.

I kindly ask the responsible maintainers to review it, please. And if=20
any change has been made that has irreversibly made it impossible=20
to use these browsers in our system, please state so for the users=E2=80=99
awareness.

Thanks very much, in advance.

Regards.
Jose Luis.
