Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2011-07-20 17:17:54 UTC

We found this bug in the upstream database (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597174) and believe that it is more appropriate to let it be resolved upstream.

The issue has been resolved upstream, so that it should be made available to Fedora users when the new upstream version is packaged.

Thank you for helping to make free software better.
