With xulrunner 1.9.0.5: $ pkg-config --cflags mozilla-plugin -I/usr/include/xulrunner-1.9/stable -I/usr/include/nspr This doesn't include a number of files needed by plugins. For example, GNU Classpath's plugin now fails to compile due to the following missing files: nsIPluginInstance.h nsIPluginInstancePeer.h nsIPluginTagInfo2.h In Fedora, these are held in a separate plugin include subdirectory which is included in the CFLAGS. -I/usr/include/xulrunner-sdk-1.9/stable -I/usr/include/xulrunner-sdk-1.9/java -I/usr/include/xulrunner-sdk-1.9/plugin -I/usr/include/nspr4 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to build a plugin (e.g. GNU Classpath's gcjwebplugin) with xulrunner-1.9.0.5 installed which uses these header files. 2. The build fails when it can't find these headers. 3. Actual Results: Build failure with gcjwebplugin. Expected Results: Build succeeds. It does on Fedora.
In the end this was needed: $ ls /usr/include/xulrunner-1.9/plugin/ nsIPluginInstance.h@ nsIPluginStreamInfo.h@ nsIPluginTagInfo2.h@ nsplugindefs.h@ nsIPluginInstancePeer.h@ nsIPluginStreamListener.h@ nsIPluginTagInfo.h@ nspluginroot.h@ after adding the plugin directory to /usr/lib/pkgconfig/mozilla-plugin.pc. Other plugins may need more. All the above are just symlinks to the files in unstable.
Andrew, why don't you file the bug upstream at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__open__&content=pkgconfig and post the bug id number here? Martin
Still an issue with 1.9.1, but will go away with 1.9.2 when stable/ and unstable/ become unified. Nevertheless, we need to fix this.
I have add a fix to mozilla overlay that nirbheek will push out with the next patch set, We will most likely backport this for stable 1.9.0.11.
I didn't file this upstream because it doesn't occur with xulrunner 1.9.1 on Fedora, only on Gentoo.

Fixed in-tree with 3.5.1
