yelp-2.22.1-r1.ebuild totem-2.22.2-r1.ebuild gnome-python-extras-2.19.1-r2.ebuild swt-3.3.1.1.ebuild epiphany-2.22.3.ebuild These still rely on firefox 2, instead of firefox 2 or 3. Suggest updating the ebuild to say: !xulrunner? ( >=www-client/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.1 ) instead of !xulrunner? ( =www-client/mozilla-firefox-2* ) Reproducible: Always
Probably invalid. When firefox 3 is built with xulrunner useflag (as preferred by upstream) xulrunner is the correct dependency (cause that's the package that provides required libs). I think that in the future xulrunner useflag will simply disappear from firefox ebuild, as it will always be built as xulrunner app, now we're simply facing transition period, when some bugs and inconsistencies of xulrunner ebuild are being fixed (like some libs being installed twice).
What comment #1 said.
But irrespective of whether I have the xulrunner use flag set or not, the ebuild keeps trying to downgrade to firefox 2.

Run it as `emerge -upVDt world` to see what is actually wrong, but there's a pretty good chance, that either one of your packages was emerged without xulrunner useflag or you were hit by portage OR dependency bug (when a package has OR dependency on firefox xulrunner (in that order), even if the correct xulrunner is emerged, firefox is seen first and downgrade attempt happens, if they're listed in the reverse order, everything is OK).
As said already these ebuilds require Firefox 2. You may have the firefox use flag set globally, which has precedence over the xulrunner use flag in a number of cases iirc. Please sort this out in forums.g.o or the gentoo-user mailing list. This is not a bug.
