nothing I can do about this it is called during the uninstall of 1.0.7 sorry.

[Comment 2 David Grant 2005-11-30 11:53:01 UTC]

Well what does the error mean, and why is it happening?

Please provide an einfo to explain what this is all about. Should I worry?

it is nothing to be concerned about. I will concider a einfo in -r1.

Could you please add an explanation to this bug as to why the failure occurs
during the uninstall of 1.07?  What is the regchrome program and why can it not
be found?  If this is run _after_ unmerging, then perhaps it should instead be
run _before_ unmerging, or even before _merging_ 1.5.

something are just not possible as we will break a stable ebuild n the process.
I have done made it clear this is nothing to be worried about. regchrome was
removed in 1.5 as extentions and themes are registered in a new manner I will
get some more info up on a firefox FAQ page over the next few days.
