During a ports upgrade, I had an upgrade from libxul also. this took quite a long time to build and used lots of CPU power and made response time slow ...
just for curiosity, I checked # pkg_info | grep libxul libxul-1.9.2.27 Mozilla runtime package that can be used to bootstrap XUL+X # pkg_info -R libxul-1.9.2.27 Information for libxul-1.9.2.27: (that is: nothing depends on it) I can't exactly remember how it got installed, but I was I think with (from /usr/ports/UPDATING) 20090917: AFFECTS: users of www/epiphany, x11/yelp, graphics/librsvg2, x11/toolkits/py-gnome-extras, and www/epiphany-extensions AUTHOR: gn...@freebsd.org The default Gecko provider has been changed from www/firefox to www/libxul. Firefox 2.x is now marked FORBIDDEN for security reasons, and libxul is new, stable, and preferred Gecko provider. Libxul uses the same Gecko engine as Firefox 3.0.x. Some ports may fail to upgrade or run when both www/firefox and libxul are installed on the same system. To make sure everything runs smoothly, uninstall www/firefox, then install libxul, then upgrade the affected ports. I have librsvg2 # pkg_info | grep librsvg2 librsvg2-2.34.1 Library for parsing and rendering SVG vector-graphic files But it does not use libxul (any more?) # pkg_info -r librsvg2-2.34.1 | grep xul (nothing) Can I safely do a # pkg_delete libxul-1.9.2.27 ?? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
