                Debian/Ubuntu 24.04+ remove Firefox snap and install Mozilla .deb version
              
          
    Debian/Ubuntu 24.04+ Firefox snap replacement

Why?


Better Integration with System

Apt: Firefox installed via apt integrates seamlessly with Debian/Lubuntu’s native theming, fonts, and desktop environment (e.g., LXQt for Lubuntu). It respects system-wide settings for GTK themes and file associations.
Snap: Snap’s sandboxing can cause inconsistencies, like mismatched themes or issues with file dialogs, as it uses its own libraries. This can feel clunky in lightweight environments like Lubuntu.


Faster Startup and Performance

    var_debug: A POSIX Shell Function for Debugging Variable Values

This Gist provides a POSIX-compliant shell function, var_debug, designed to simplify debugging variable values in shell scripts. It logs variable names and their values with an optional custom prefix, integrating seamlessly with a log_msg function for consistent logging. The function is particularly useful in complex scripts where tracing variable states is critical for debugging.
Features


Variable Logging: Logs multiple variables in the format <prefix> <var_name>: <var_value>.
Optional Prefix: Supports a custom prefix (e.g., INFO:, DEV:), defaulting to DEV:.
Unset Variable Handling: Logs unset for undefined variables.
POSIX Compliance: Works in any POSIX sh environment, avoiding non-standard features.
Integration: Relies on log_msg for logging to stdout and/or a file.
