Description Ole Henrik Jahren 2011-05-03 15:56:04 UTC
Older xulrunner ebuilds are being removed as soon as newer version is
available. This is problematic since other ebuilds (like www-client/icecat
which lags firefox by a bit) still depends on the old version.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try installing www-client/icecat-4.0 with only net-libs/xulrunner-2.0.1 in portage tree
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
www-client/icecat-4.0 can not be installed since matching net-libs/xulrunner
is missing.

Expected Results:  
Sucessfull install

icecat-4.0 requires xulrunner-2.0. I tend to assume that 2.0.1 will work too. But, I haven't ever used icecat. Can you test that by changing MAJ_XUL_PV="2.0" to 2.0.1 and re-disgesting the ebuild? ("ebuild <ebuild> digest" will update the Manifest)

This seem to work, if I also change the configure option --with-libxul-sdk= from
using '$MAJ_XUL_PV' to hardcoding '2.0'.
