Can you confirm what version is installed with: rpm -q xulrunner. I have a workaround that I used with F14 that should still work with this situation. Which repos are enabled in olpc-so-builder when you generate the image?

Re: Install Firefox
Hi, I have found it unproductive to try to install Firefox by rebuilding. It is far easier to update the XO with a bash script from a usb drive. This also avoids the problem with using a signed release (the basic build is signed). I am currently using Firefox 20 on build 12.1.0. The install script is: #install firefox echo 'install firefox' rm -rf /home/olpc/.mozilla sudo rm -rf /opt/firefox* sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/firefox sudo cp firefox*.tar.bz2 /opt cd /opt sudo tar -xvjpf firefox*.tar.bz2 cd /usr/bin sudo ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox firefox sudo rm -rf /opt/firefox*.tar.bz2 sudo poweroff This script also installs some Sugar activities. The final poweroff command shows the script is finished and also forces reboot of the XO. Note: the * after Firefox keeps the script valid when the Firefox release level changes. Naturally, the downloaded tarball is installed on the USB drive.

Ah yes, you are right, the latest available versions on koji are matching (v17) and built OK. I didn't spot them in the mass of failed builds. So the Fedora situation is OK. I'm not sure what the following lines translate to but you should never use the koji repositories as repos as they contain all sorts of randomly tagged bits that the release repos don't. olpc_frozen_1=0,koji.dist-f17-armv7hl olpc_frozen_2=0,koji.dist-f17-armv7hl-updates-12.1.0 Don't worry, these are not the koji repos you are thinking of. They are OLPC's frozen versions of fedora repos from the release's freeze date and are not directly from koji - really we should change the naming scheme. And this is the cause of the problem - upon release freeze date, the firefox/xulrunner situation was in inconsistent state; this problem has been frozen in our repos. Basanta, I would advise against adding the official fedora-updates repo into your build as has been suggested in this thread - while this will result in a well matched firefox/xulrunner combination, it will bring in a lot of untested package updates that were not part of the release and have probably not been tested on OLPC XO. That is why later in the thread I suggested to download what yum installed on the XO, then create and use a custom repo for OOB. Instead, create a local repo with these 2 packages and add it to your build config: http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=109570 http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=116355 It will need newer nss*/nspr builds too.
