Description Gergan Penkov 2005-07-29 08:51:05 UTC

Some of the libraries in epiphany-extensions, which link against mozilla, do not
set the rpath/runpath tags, which could lead to problems by dynamic resolution
(this will depend on ld.so.conf order of the exported directories - mozilla or
firefox comes first, or will completely break the plugins, if there is no
exported path there).
There is also an attached patch, which resolves the problem. There is a possible
problem only with net-monitor, which I could not build because of the
dbus-dependancy and which could probably also link against the
mozilla-libraries, in this case there should be added a line in its Makefile.in
similiar to the ones in the patch.

This patch will set the correct rpath/runpath tag of the libraries, which link
against mozilla.

epiphany-extensions-1.6.4-r1.ebuild

That's the full ebuild, which uses the patch (adds only one epatch-line). 
The Net-monitor extension does not use mozilla at all, so the patch is fully
working.

Comment 3 Gergan Penkov 2005-08-15 16:35:14 UTC

This bug is now obsolete with the new mozilla and mozilla-firefox ebuild, which
will set automatically the rpaths needed.
