"unsupported" & "untrusted" regarding PPAs are those that are not created nor supported by the (K)Ubuntu team(s), they were created and made available by a 3rd party.

I don't see why there'd be an issue but as I don't use Kubuntu I don't know. you could always backup your FF folder (~/.mozilla) and test it

Your biggest concern might be that the customized themes you have won't be compatible with FF 29 (assuming you aren't running it yet)

Remember Rekonq is a KDE app and thus uses the std colors and themes like all KDE apps

then it should only feel and behave like a regular firefox upgrade.

Thunderbird also needs some love. Right now it's not showing anything in the system tray when the new mail arrives for example.

Sorry typo, meant to say is. Never said bar though. ;) As for the manjaro forums...as soon as my account is activated. Just figuered I would try here first. It should be a simillar fix as arch but google shows no similar reports. Maybe it's because the global menu package wont install?
