Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hulahop
xulrunner-1.9 1.9.0.6 landed in hardy. sugar-hulahop was built against
1.9.0.5. Since the path changes to libxul, we need a rebuild against
1.9.0.6.
Since hardy has a different sourcepackage to intrepid and jaunty, this
has been logged as a separate bug.
It was fixed for sugar-hulahop in jaunty in bug 328033. jaunty does not
have the hulahop package, but it's fundamentally the same as sugar-
hulahop.
The impact of the bug is that Sugar's web browser based on xulrunner
(sugar-web-activity) fails to start because the libxul.so path has
changed. This is a very important package for Sugar, and prevents Sugar
users from running their web browser.
The fix is a simple rebuild against the current xulrunner-1.9, so the
risk is minimal for doing this to the stable releases. Jaunty has been
fixed by a no changes upload to sugar-hulahop 0.4.8~dfsg-3ubuntu4.
The debdiff will be attached.
TEST CASE: Install sugar and sugar-activities. Launch Sugar by running
sugar-emulator. Press F3 to see the Home View. The icons along the
bottom of the frame launch activities. Click on the Browse icon. If the
icon pulses at the centre of the screen for several seconds and then
disappears, it failed. If a web browser appears, then it succeeded. Quit
the sugar emulator by pressing alt-q.
Since the browser completely fails to launch now, and the fix is simply
a rebuild, there's no risk of further regression.
** Affects: hulahop (Ubuntu)
