Last couple of days i test rekonq, after made SLKBUILD, build and installed.
rekonq is fast use little memory and is a native kde app. This is the good thing.
What is bad. Rekonq need konqueror (which is on full kde-baseapps package) to be fully functional.
To play cnn.com videos for example needs konqueror otherwise only sound plays and nothing appears on video area.
Because network and search engines are dependent of konqueror without konqueror installed, on rekonq settings the web search engines shows a message the module is not installed. And on proxy settings clicking on button nothing appears to set proxy for the system.

I agree to use rekonq on salix kde with konqueror installed also.
KDE developers said that on kde5 rekonq will include network and search engines which included now on konqueror code, to be fully indepedent from konqueror.

An alternative is qupzilla which depends only on qt and webengine as rekonq. qupzilla don't need any other kde package.
I have in mind to use qupzilla as the default browser for razorqt salix edition. I have test razor qt packages and they work fine.

Because razorqt use openbox can have both in one. Or openbox salix edition can be a different edition.

I will upload on salix packages submissions the packages for rekonq, qupzilla for anyone like to install and test them.
I will upload also razorqt packages.

Edit: rekonq and qupzilla packages

Try building Flash-player-plugin 11.2.202.243 from Slackbuilds.org.

What would that accomplish?

It seemed to me that it is working properly.

The flash-plugin in slackbuilds.org is an old version. Therefore, it's a security risk. If the old version works and the new version doesn't you should complain to Adobe.
