I just rebuilt Miro for firefox 2.0.0.8 on f8 and f7, after that's pushed for f7 and f8-final, I'll look at fixing the spec file to not be specific for a particular version (assuming that is indeed the case). Thorsten Scherf just made me a co-maintainer. To clarify, do not depend on firefox period. Change the dependency to gecko-libs. BAD: Requires: firefox = 2.0.0.8 GOOD: Requires: gecko-libs = 1.8.1.8 This will make the transition to xulrunner easier. (Same for firefox-devel, please change it to gecko-devel) OK, but that still means a rebuild of Miro would be required when a new firefox comes out, because (for the moment) firefox provides gecko-libs and the version of gecko-libs is bumped on each new firefox release at the moment. I thought that Lubomir was suggesting that the Requires doesn't need to be versioned. Alex: I didn't mean that. Obviously, as many people thought that, I chose bad wording. I apologize for that. (In reply to comment #4) > Alex: I didn't mean that. Obviously, as many people thought that, I chose bad > wording. I apologize for that. OK, so the Requires will still need to be versioned, but versioned for gecko-libs right? Anyway I've updated the bug summary to make it clear what the change will need to be, and I'll get working on this once the new updates have hit the repositories and things have settled down a bit. Correct. Still versioned requires, just against gecko-libs. Is there an rpm of miro I can install on my f7 system that will work? The current one in the repo nees firefox 2.0.0.5 and I have 2.0.0.8 now (I uninstalled miro to do the firefox update because I thought it was important). If I install the miro in the repo with no-deps it does not run because it is looking for a mozilla library in the old directory. Jack: It was pushed yesterday and should be on mirrors. Check again. Ah, ok. I got it installed, thanks. Unfortunately I realized it is v 0.9.8 and not the latest 0.9.9 (from getmiro.org) which fixed the startup bug for me. Any chance 0.9.9 will be built soon? Jack: It seems like 0.9.9 is not built yet, even for Fedora 9 [1]. However, though I can not answer your question, I suggest you asked maintainer to either backport the patch for the fix or bump version by opening a bugzilla ticket for the bug in question. [1] http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=4854 Do not use this ticket, as the issue it describes has been properly fixed. (In reply to comment #9) > Ah, ok.

As a new co-maintainer of Miro I am in the process of building the new 0.9.9 version of Miro (there are some issues that need to be resolved with the package first). Hi, thanks for your answers even though I posted in the wrong place. I look forward to 0.9.9. :) |
