2010-11-19 Thread eventissimus
I played with CouchDB in Ubuntu 10.04. Later on, after the installation, configuring CouchDB, and first play, I did automatic update. xulrunner was updated from /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.10 to /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.12 It impacted CouchDB too much (query functionality is not working). This

The reasoning is apparently that xulrunner doesn't have a stable ABI and isn't versioned meaningfully. This is probably a complaint that should be taken up with Mozilla. -- xulrunner + dynamic linker run-time bindings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557275 You received this bug notification

I've heard, paraphrasing: The ABI of xulrunner is unstable, and the library is unversioned. We can't support installs and upgrades for the three or five years that we say we will. -- xulrunner + dynamic linker run-time bindings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557275 You received this bug

Chris, Why it's deliberately not installed in the search path like other libs? It make distributions of application relying on xulrunner difficult on ubuntu. Even you CouchDB package uses an ugly hack by changing search path when it start.SO please elaborrate. -- xulrunner + dynamic linker

Thank you for your bug report. xulrunner is deliberately not installed in to the default search path, so it wouldn't make sense for us to do this change (we may as well just ship it in the default path if we wanted applications to link to it at runtime in the usual way) ** Changed in:

Chris, Could you elaborate a bit? Why is it the case for xulrunner that applications should not be able to link to it in the usual way? -- xulrunner + dynamic linker run-time bindings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557275 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

I have also encountered this problem, and can confirm that the fix suggested by the bug submitter corrects the problem. However, I don't believe that it's necessary to include the /usr/lib/xulrunner- devel-1.9.2.2 directory in the xulrunner.conf file, since it contains no shared libraries (and
