Details

Description:
the dependency xulrunner<20.0 blocks system from updating

Additional info:
* package version(s)
2.0-4
* config and/or log files etc.
n/a

Steps to reproduce:
xulrunner updated to 20.0, and the depends array can not be met.

i find the following line in PKGBUILD:
sed -i -e 's/19.*/20.0/g' ../application.ini

i suggest bumping the 20.0 to an arbitrary large number, like 99.9, and remove the xulrunner< requirement in depends array. it would be better to see an un-usable document viewer than an un-updatable system.
This task depends upon
