Christian Dywan has announced the immediate availability for download of the eleventh maintenance release of the Midori 0.5 open-source web browser used by default in numerous lightweight GNU/Linux distributions, including elementary OS.

According to the brief release notes, Midori 0.5.11 is here to introduce support for Client Side Decorations (CSD), along with GTK+ 3.10-based header bars, which can be enabled via the GTK_CSD=1 environment variable, and updates to most of its dependencies, including Zeitgeist, WebKit2, and libSoup.

"As things go we diverged a bit from the original plan of making a big compatibility break with this release. Instead much of the original branch has been broken off into pieces that made their way into trunk," says Christian Dywan. "With no further adue here goes Midori 0.5.11 with a whole lot of nice things and a ton of bug fixes!"

Download the sources of Midori 0.5.11 web browser right now from Softpedia or check the project's website for binary packages for the elementary OS, Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian GNU/Linux, Mageia, Arch Linux, OpenSuSE, and Linux Mint distributions, as well as for the Microsoft Windows operating system.

A portable version for Windows OSes is available for download as well. Please note that Midori 0.5.11 includes numerous bugfixes, so if you want to know what exactly has been changed, we recommend reading the changelog attached at the end of the article.
