Description Takanori MATSUURA 2011-09-29 12:00:20 UTC
In xulrunner-7.0-1.fc17, xulrunner is installed under %{_libdir}/xulrunner-2, not %{_libdir}/xulrunner-7.

Comment 1 Takanori MATSUURA 2011-09-29 12:01:37 UTC
Or %{_libdir}/xulrunner which is the same manner as firefox and thunderbird.

Comment 2 Martin Stransky 2012-05-03 13:50:35 UTC
We keep the directory for compatibility and preferences reason (you can put your preferences to the xulrunner dir and they won't be overridden). Why should be change the xulrunner dir with the new versions?

Comment 3 Takanori MATSUURA 2012-06-23 01:19:12 UTC
According to https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Gecko
Firefox 13 and Thunderbird 13 are based on Gecko 13. If we need compatibility, we can make xulrunner-2 symlink to xulrunner-13.

However I don't know Gecko 13 has really compatible with Gecko 2.
