From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050909 Galeon/1.3.21 Description of problem: Yet again mozilla has been updated and galeon needs recompiled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): galeon-1.3.21-13.fc4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum update Actual Results: Error: Missing Dependency: mozilla = 37:1.7.10 is needed by package galeon Expected Results: No errors along with mozilla and galeon updated Additional info:
Please make sure it gets rebuilt for FC3, as well. I don't know the internals of the RH build systems, but it would be useful for nightly updaters, and labor-saving for RH, to automate the rebuilding of dependent packages, even when the dependency is across repos. For example, whenever mozilla gets rebuilt, galeon should too, automatically. That way, galeon will never again hold up our system updates, as it is famous for doing. I'm sure there must be other packages that would benefit, as well. Thanks, --jh--
I think Dams has more or less orphaned galeon. I volunteered to maintain it only in the worst case if nobody else did, but Dennis Leroy recently volunteered on the fedora-extras mailing list: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-list/2005-September/msg01447.html

Great idea, but I think the problem is that the version of galeon needs to be hardcoded in the spec file (at least in the current implementation of the FE buildsystem). See the (quite long) previous discussion of this at: bug #164344. Warren Togami was advocating this approach.
(In reply to comment #3) > Great idea, but I think the problem is that the version of > galeon needs to be ^^^^^^^ Of course, I mean the current version of *mozilla* (that galeon depends on).
Yes, i'm happy to take over the maintenance of galeon. I'll fix this later today, it should be a simple version bump-up and build requests. This affects FC3, FC4 and devel.
For some reason, i can't reassign this bug to me nor close it. Someone please close it thanks, new RPMS were released today.
You need to request membership in fedorabugs group in the accounts system.
Thank you! The recompliation was eagerly awaiting and greatly appreciated.
