Hehe. In Debian Mozilla, Firefox and Xulrunner is maintained by the same
people. They put mozilla-dev and xulrunner-dev into our repo. They never
put something like firefox-dev into repo because said its enough to use
mozilla-dev or xulrunner-dev. Mozilla will be removed so I need to use
Xulrunner.
For Ubuntu the situation is a bit different. They never had mozilla-dev,
just firefox-dev and now xulrunner-dev too.
I would like to be able to use Xulrunner to have a common package that
works on Debian AND Ubuntu.
/me hates this.
Cheers,
Michael
