Apparently you have a working XULRunner installation that generates a
working application. Which version of XULRunner do you use, and on
which version of MacOS? I have tried everything I could lay my hands
on, under MacOS 10.6.8, but nothing works. All I ever get is a
"XULRunner error", no matter whether I try to run or install Conkeror.
That's why I have worked on an installation based on Firefox.

Given the recent exchanges, I should add that this Info.plist works if
used directly in an application bundle, after replacing
$CONKEROR_SHORT_VERSION$ by the version number. I assumed that that's
what XULRunner does when installing, but apparently that is not true.

There is a simple example application available as an attachment to
the XULRunner tutorial at:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/getting_started_with_xulrunner
There's also a set of instructions for packaging that example app for
distribution for various platforms:

Unfortunately I can't help with testing this, because I can't get
XULRunner to work.
Konrad.
