(and compile it!!!). I don't know if this is easy to copy/paste iceweasel
package code.
Changelog for iceweasel 30.0-1 [1] states that iceweasel is no longer
an xulrunner application, so probably kiwix should also consider to
move out of xulrunner? But again this is my question I'm not sure
about effort involved. Below is line taken from changelog.
* xulrunner/moz.build, xulrunner/installer/*.pc.in, xulrunner/confvars.sh,
xulrunner/app/xulrunner.js, netwerk/test/unit/test_socks.js,
webapprt/gtk2/webapprt.cpp, configure.in,
xpcom/glue/standalone/nsXPCOMGlue.cpp: Revert changes that are
irrelevant now that Iceweasel is not a xulrunner application.

I don't know with which package this is replaced, the xulrunner-dev
packager should knows this. Having a look to other xulrunner

I have delayed work on that as I have been waiting for a notice from
you about a Kiwix release we can package.
I actually cherry-picked a version already from upstream git.
@Vasudev: I think we should not try to fix the upstream version we
have in Debian unstable with patches etc. We need a new upstream
release.
No I didn't fix with patches but I just pulled a git snapshot from
upstream which Kelson said is ready for release but blocking because of
some minor changes needed to other platforms IIRC. If its okay can you
review this?.
Also there is couple of problem like Android source included in upstream
tarball which I filtered out as Kelson said it will not be dropped from
the source. (results in lot of warning noice from dpkg-source)
@Kelson: can you provide an upstream release within the next 8 weeks?
If not, I will request a removal of Kiwix from Debian, until we have
some code that works well with latest package situation in Debian
unstable.
Yes this is important because we have freeze coming in November and last
time we missed it because we couldn't get kiwix in well before freeze
and RC bugs during freeze resulted in drop from stable :(

That may be a better replacement, as I was pointed out on #752836. Depends on what your package was using xulrunner-dev for.

kiwix build-depends on xulrunner-dev, which is no longer built by

Thanks for heads up I had just prepared new version of kiwix with
xulrunner-dev couple of weeks back which was still building. I'm CCing
the main developer of kiwix on how package should go ahead.
Kelson it looks like the package we are depending on xulrunner-dev is
no longer provided, do you know which of above packages we can use?. I
think this also has to be taken care during your next release.
