Description Edgar Uriel Domínguez Espinoza 2010-08-20 14:38:10 UTC
The script "run-conkeror" is deprecated and can't detect new versions of XULRunner.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install XULRunner >=1.9.2.4
2.Install Conkeror-0.9.2
3.Run Conkeror

Actual Results:  
Conkeror says: Cannot continue. XULRunner not found.

Expected Results:  
Should work without problems.
Comment 1 Cyprien Nicolas (fulax) 2010-08-20 19:43:30 UTC
Hem, works for me, conkeror starts correctly

lambda ~ # qlist -ICv xulrunner conkeror
net-libs/xulrunner-1.8.1.19
net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2.8-r1
www-client/conkeror-0.9.2

Could you copy the result of the two following commands?
$ qlist -ICv xulrunner conkeror
$ grep -h '^\[' "$HOME"/.gre.d/*.conf "/etc/gre.d"/*.conf 2>/dev/null | sort -urV

(qlist is part of portage-utils)

The output: 

$ qlist -ICv xulrunner conkeror
net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2.8
www-client/conkeror-0.9.2
$ grep -h '^\[' "$HOME"/.gre.d/*.conf "/etc/gre.d"/*.conf 2>/dev/null | sort -urV
[1.9.2.8]

The mistake happen when  run-conkeror try to get "xrdir". If you get a new snapshot of conkeror you can see a different script which works fine for me.

I cannot reproduce this. What is the output of the following commands?

$ version=[1.9.2.8]
$ grep -Fxh -A2 -m1 "$version" "$HOME"/.gre.d/*.conf "/etc/gre.d"/*.conf

This file does not exist: "$HOME"/.gre.d/*.conf "/etc/gre.d"/*.conf

Maybe the problem is my setup as you say however, the last snapshot works and have important improvements.

 If only Conkeror guys could provide some real releases.  Ulrich, ready for a new snapshot...maybe one that Debian took?

The file in /etc/gre.d/ should definitely exist. It's installed by xulrunner.

At least they tag their versions in the git repo. Last one was 0.9.2 five months ago.

> Ulrich, ready for a new snapshot...maybe one that Debian took?

I'd much prefer a version like 0.9.3 instead of some Debian thingy. Maybe we should ask upstream to make their "releases" more often? If they refuse we can 
still take an intermediate snapshot.
Comment 7 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2010-09-12 06:17:06 UTC
Seems that upstream is unwilling to make releases at this point, see URL:
"... we consider the best version to run is always the latest git head."
which is of course unacceptable from a distro's point of view.

Can we please drop this package to unstable again, or even package.mask it? It should never have been stabilised, in the first place.

I've made a new shapshot (of the "best version", see above).

I agree with you.

Make it unstable can be a good idea and add "general snapshots". I mean there is a snapshot called only with the version (0.9.1, 0.9.2). The week snapshot with improvements for debian or other distros are not important for us (could be conkeror-9999.ebuild).

Other option is add versions by date like in uzbl browser.
Comment 9 Edgar Uriel Domínguez Espinoza 2010-10-11 14:45:21 UTC
There is a new version avaliable (0.9.3). Who can update the ebuild?
Comment 10 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2010-10-11 15:38:59 UTC
Reopening.
Comment 11 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2010-10-11 16:59:18 UTC
This should be fixed in 0.9.3. Please reopen in case it isn't.
