Source: kiwix
Severity: serious

kiwix build-depends on xulrunner-dev, which is no longer built by
src:iceweasel. If you use it for libxul or mozilla-plugin, that is
now in iceweasel-dev. If you were using mozilla-js, you may want to
look at src:mozjs24.

We (Vasudev and I) are currently trying to look into this issue.

Do you have a clue how the xulrunner binary got replaced in Debian
unstable?

Kiwix gets launches via

xulrunner-<version> $BINARY_DIR/../lib/kiwix/application.ini "$@"

But I cannot find anything that replaces the xulrunner-<version>
executable in unstable at the moment.

Any idea??? Or did this transition break kiwix completely (it has been
RC buggy for a while, but we were about to get it fixed two weeks before
the xulrunner packages got removed from unstable).

Iceweasel seems to be the last survivor:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=xulrunner&mode=filename&suite=experimental&arch=any

My guess: probably (and like for Ubuntu), Kiwix needs now to embed xulrunner (and compile it!!!). I don't know if this is easy to copy/paste iceweasel package code.

Regards
Emmanuel
