Description john bray 2007-11-13 01:18:30 UTC
Description of problem:
gnome-python2-gtkmozembed blocks miro upgrade.  since miro is dependent on this
package, and this package specifies one release of firefox, miro cannot be
upgraded when a new release is tied to a firefox release.  since this package is
not released concurrently with firefox.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.14.3-5-fc7@x86-64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to upgrade miro when firefox is installed
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
fails

Expected results:
happen

Additional info:
this package depends on a specific version of firefox.  unless it is released
with firefox, any package which depends on it can't be upgraded.  e.g. miro

is this really a firefox dependency?  or is it really something in mozilla below
firefox?  i.e. a lib that doesn't change frequently?  e.g. the gecko stuff?

there appear to be a large number of packages which depend on firefox's specific
release.  this causes really big problems every time firefox is released.

Please update to gnome-python2-extras-2.14.3-6.fc7.
