Description Hiran Arias 2008-07-17 04:15:38 UTC
Description of problem:

Failed to use data providers that requires built web browser and to open
Help->Developer links, the new windows always open in blank.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
conduit-0.3.11.1

How reproducible:

Fresh install

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install conduit
2. Install gnome-phyton2-gtkmozembed
3. Try to sync facebook or open the Help->Development links
  
Actual results:

The new windows always open in blank

Expected results:


Additional info:

Found out that the gtkmozembed.so library was compiled using xulrunner and not
firefox, and that the script /usr/bin/conduit has a work around to find the
run-mozilla.sh script just for firefox, modifying the script to use xulrunner
instead solves the problem.

Comment 1 Michel Lind 2008-08-23 06:37:00 UTC
I just fixed this for the 0.3.13 package. I'm also switching the rendering engine that conduit uses to "system" (using the default system browser), since on Fedora 9 and Rawhide, using Firefox 3/xulrunner 1.9, conduit crashes when opening a second help page.
