The package npapi-sdk is now available in Factory and packages which
just need the npapi headers (browser plugin components shouldn't need
more, although icedtea-web might be different as it seems they call back
into Gecko for some reason :-()

Unfortunately it's still not completely clear to me how to proceed with
the remaining stuff. As it's for sure possible to create a devel package
for Firefox still every future Firefox update will most likely break the
embeddors.

So here is a _call to every maintainer of a package which is built
against mozilla-xulrunner* in Factory_!
Please join opensuse-factory-mozilla@xxxxxxxxxxxx and speak up there to
discuss how we can proceed if you think it's not possible to build your
package using
js-devel
npapi-sdk

Also please join if you have issues changing your package to use them.

There is not much time left to come up with a plan.
I'd like to drop mozilla-xulrunner20 ASAP (as it's unmaintained
security-wise already from upstream).
mozilla-xulrunner192 likely to follow soon.
