I tried to solve xulrunner freedom bug, but have some problems. First, I used iceweasel 3.5.8 from Lenny Backports (http://packages.debian.org/lenny-backports/xulrunner-1.9.1) and applied: -the changes Robert Millan made in our current version of Xulrunner, -the bug fix.
I discovered there was no rule to build xulrunner from this version of iceweasel under the "debian" directory and I am not able to do all that work by myself. So I looked for the latest version of Lenny Backport's Xulrunner prepared by the maintainers at http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=glandium%40debian.org: this is xulrunner-1.9.1.11-1~bpo50+1 (see http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports/pool/main/x/xulrunner/). I applied the changes made by Robert and the bug fix. When I `dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc', I have a lot of dependancy problems. I think those can only be solved by basing metad entirely upon current version of Lenny Backport, which sounds unlikely. So where should I go from here? Is it better to: -try packaging Lenny's version of xulrunner with bug fix? -apply the fix to the metad's version of xulrunner? (Seems the best option to me.) -wait for Parkes release then fix the bug in it?
