Comment 2 dijuremo 2012-02-24 19:22:33 UTC
Not only they fail to build, they fail to install from the binary rpms on both RHEL 6.2 and 5.8 channels, bummer, release a new package that cannot be installed.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

UPDATE: As of 2PM today, seems like xulrunner 10 and firefox 10 have been pulled out of the 6.2 channels. Still on 5.8 channels, but that may be due to our satellite replication not having updated.

Please be patient should be resolved very soon, probably on the beginning of next week.

Thanks for understanding
Tom

Comment 4 Robert Rolfe 2012-03-01 01:24:46 UTC
Looks like the problem got resolved by RH posting the updated packages.  Once those were posted and built into the tree.. xulrunner, firefox, thunderbird, and yelp started to build properly.

Thanks RH.

Comment 5 Martin Stransky 2012-03-15 15:38:20 UTC
Should be okay now.
