Details

Description:

Xulrunner is used by a bunch of packages to build an interface and as a easy way to get access to html rendering. chmsee (in [extra]) and lucidor (in AUR) for example.

However, Mozilla blew the build script doesn't put a run-mozilla.sh in its runtime path (being: /usr/lib/xulrunner-14.0.1/) which results in packages calling xulrunner making xulrunner confused and xulrunner goes lost in the woods.

The bug is reported to Mozilla (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=756786) and apparently about to be fixed, so this bugreport can be closed already and is purely informational.

Additional info:
Name : xulrunner
Version : 14.0.1-1

Steps to reproduce:
$chmsee
Cannot find XULRunner runtime directory. Exiting.


possible workaround:
ln -s /usr/lib/xulrunner-14.0.1/xulrunner-bin /usr/lib/xulrunner-14.0.1/run-mozilla.sh

This task depends upon

Please not another xulrunner update just to add one single symlink. xulrunner-bin is the new run-mozilla.sh if I read that bugreport right. The error message is from xulrunner so there should be no need to patch other packages.

Is this fixed in 15.0-1?
