Thanks for that information! I was skimming through the changelogs for
relevant changes, but haven't found anything on a first glance.

I'm though sorry, but making a /usr/share/conkeror/xulrunner symbolic
link won't work cleanly with more than one xulrunner installation
until the xulrunner-* packages provide some /usr/bin/xulrunner (as
symlink to /etc/alternatives/xulrunner, probably as slave alternative)
in addition to /usr/bin/xulrunner-stub aka
/etc/alternatives/xulrunner-stub.

I thought I once saw a bug report about that before, but I haven't
found any, neither for xulrunner-5.0 nor for xulrunner-1.9.1. I just the
related http://bugs.debian.org/567169, so maybe it was just a
discussion on pkg-moz-maintainers. So I'm reassigning that bug back to
xulrunner-5.0 with retitling it appropriately.

                Regards, Axel
