While this may be a valid bug, the reason for having both xulrunner AND firefox[-xulrunner] evades me, especially that 3.5 has a hard dep on xulrunner.
(In reply to comment #1) > While this may be a valid bug, the reason for > having both xulrunner AND firefox[-xulrunner] evades me, > especially that 3.5 has a hard dep on xulrunner. > UPstream wants to move all apps on top of xulrunner, this is to make it alot easier on security releases for distros. Firefox-3.5 will now force xulrunner as the only possible config option from gentoo.
3.5.x is stable closing wontfix.
