Perhaps that somehow botched the installation. BTW, shouldn't firegpg depend on the appropriate version of xulrunner?

I can configure it but not integrate with gmail yet). This may be due to a newer version of firegpg (0.7.10) being available. I just filed debian bug #556568 to note that the new version is available but not yet in debian. i'll try to package it shortly. Now that you mention it, I did upgrade xulrunner sometime around the same time I installed firegpg (my aptitude log says I installed firegpg and then [a separate run] upgraded xulrunner 1.9.1.4-1 - 1.9.1.5-1). Perhaps that somehow botched the installation. BTW, shouldn't firegpg depend on the appropriate version of xulrunner? no, i don't think so. firegpg depends on iceweasel, and should work properly with either xulrunner version 1.9 or 1.9.1. i believe the version you're running was built against xulrunner-dev 1.9, actually, but works against both versions. then again, maybe it should have an explicit dependency, since it's linking against libxpcom.so, and that can only be found from one of the xulrunner-1.foo packages. Further advice welcome! When I have some time (hopefully this afternoon or tomorrow morning), I'll see if downgrading xulrunner breaks firegpg. Thanks, Felipe! If you aren't able to reproduce the bug, would you consider downgrading its severity from grave to something not RC? Regards, --dkg signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
