-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have iceweasel 3.5.10-1~bpo50-1 installed from lenny-backports. Among other packages it depends on xulrunner 1.9.1, also installed from lenny-backports when I installed that version of iceweasel.
When recently I ran aptitude update I discovered that the version of xulrunner was to be upgraded from 1.9.1.10-1 to 1.9.1.11-1. When however I ran aptitude upgrade the following message appeared: WARNING: terminal is not fully functional /tmp/tmpVrC3qX (press RETURN)xulrunner (1.9.1.10-1) unstable; urgency=high Due to problems with the version of at least epiphany-gecko and kazehakase-gecko this backport of does not ship the file /etc/gre.d/1.9.1.system.conf. Iceweasel should pick up the new xulrunner version anyway, however should you need this backport for other packages and depends on that file, you can try to: a) Create such a file somewhere outside of /etc/gre.d/ and set the MOZ_GRE_CONF pointing to that location. b) Create such a file in your users ${HOME}/.gre.d directory (which you most likely need to create). The contents of it should look like the following: [1.9.1.6] GRE_PATH=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1 xulrunner=true abi=x86_64-gcc3 -- Alexander Reichle-Schmehl <toli...@debian.org> Wed, 30 Jun 2010 09:01:48 +0200 (END) RESULT=130 (END) At this point the upgrade aborted, with the result that none of the 28 packages awaiting upgrade were upgraded. Since I do not use gnome or kazehakase I concluded that I needn't worry about the issues referred to with respect to these packages. So as instructed I tried option (a) in that message, creating the conf file in a different directory and the variable MOZ_GRE_CONF to point to it. I then ran aptitude upgrade again with the same result: the same message followed by abortion of the upgrade. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me how to solve this problem, presumably either by telling me what I must do (other than what I have already done) about the xulrunner problem, or how to avoid upgrading xulrunner (probably not necessary in my case) but upgrade all the 27 other packages.
