Description Hypnos 2010-05-19 16:09:51 UTC
The parole source contains the API headers for mozilla plugins, and therefore does not need to depend on net-libs/xulrunner when the "nsplugin" USE flag is enabled.  Moreover, nowhere in the documentation is this dependency mentioned.

 I edited the ebuild to remove this dependency and emerged parole with "nsplugin" in my USE flags, and it works fine with Midori.

Hmm, correct you are there. The only mention of xulrunner is in the NEWS file.

%% grep -ri xulrunner *
NEWS:- Fix compilation with xulrunner 1.9.2.

I wonder what that means. Anyway, it will be quite awhile before I have a chance to test this, maybe someone else can check it in the meantime.

just checked, looks like it works without xulrunner
