           Summary: gconf-backend.patch in xulrunner 1.9 introduces new
                    libgconf requirement
           Product: openSUSE 11.1
           Version: Factory
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Firefox
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The redesigned libsystem-pref component (gconf-backend) creates a new runtime
requirement to libgconf because the component is integral part of libxul.so.
To remove gnome-vfs and gconf runtime requirements we splitted the -gnomevfs
subpackage.
I don't know if the new requirement is problematic (people doing liveCDs might
know) but if it needs to be solved the solutions could be:
- don't include the component into libxul but let is stay outside as external 
  component and add it to the -gnomevfs subpackage
- redesign the component (and if needed the libmozgnome.so component) to let
  all gconf transactions go through libmozgnome.so. That would actually disable
  the internal component but would also kill the library requirement.
