./src/yelp-gecko-utils.cpp static const GREVersionRange greVersion = { "1.9a", PR_TRUE, "2", PR_TRUE };

I suspect 2.0.1 is not in the range.

Right.

...

2.0.99 should be in the second line.

I _think_ the right string would be 2.0.* (but that should be verified first). (In reply to comment #2)

...

Wolfgang: will 2.0.99 cover for sure all xulrunner20 releases that will go in 11.4 updates?

I cannot see the future unfortunately but there is a good chance that 2.0.x is covered for the next 18 months or so. I again forgot which type of embedding is used from yelp but gtkmozembed is going to die (or already died?) with Firefox 5 or 6 anyway. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'll try that.

Yelp uses gtkmozembed, indeed. All I really care is the versioning of the xulrunner20 package. Even if we switch to FF 5 or 6 in 11.4, xulrunner20 will still be there, so that's enough for me. (Note that in Factory, yelp moved to webkit, so it won't be an issue anymore) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
