Description Daniel Gryniewicz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-11-13 10:50:30 UTC
Hi, sparc, ppc, and ppc64.

I've added xulrunner support in liferea-1.2_rc1-r1, so I've temporarily removed you keywords, until it can be worked out. The only difference in -r1 is the xulrunner support, and I'll keep including future parallel versions until either xulrunner is keyworded or the use flag is masked.

Long term, I'd very much like to drop firefox and seamonkey support, as upstream only uses xulrunner, so it's much better supported and works better than either of the other two.  I don't know the status of xulrunner on other arches, though, so I'm not sure that's possible.

Please either: keyword xulrunner (preferable, if possible) or mask the xulrunner USE flag in your arch.

mozilla: This problem will hit every other package that can use xulrunner, liferea is just the first.  Should we have a global USE flag masked by default and unmasked on x86/amd64?

I would like to see a useflag of xulrunner :) globally right now I do not think we can .. Also you can not drop firefox/seamonkey from the use until a xulrunner is stable .. that should not happen until 1.0 is released which is sometime in 1 quarter of 2007.

Sure I can, as the newer versions of liferea aren't stable either.  I just can't stabilize that version of liferea until xulrunner is stable.

For a ~sparc keyword, send $19.95 USD plus a self addressed stamped envelope to...
