Hi, Gentoo!
A couple of days ago, I merged firefox-17.0.2 and ran revdep-rebuild -p.
It said, strangely, that some firefox libraries needed rebuilding.
I've just let revdep-rebuild rebuild firefox. I run revdep-rebuild -p
again, and it's still saying these libraries need rebuilding. This
isn't good.
Here's some output from revdep-rebuild -p:
* Checking dynamic linking consistency
[ 100% ]Same problem

available)

* /usr/lib64/firefox/sdk/lib/libxpcom.so -> www-client/firefox
The problem seems to be the "no version information available".
revdep-rebuild is now less useful than it should be.
Has anybody else encountered this problem, and what is the best way to
solve it?
Same problem here, although with V18.0-r1. I have
net-libs/xulrunner-2.0.1-r1 on my machine, referring to
Jean-Christophe's proposed fix. I'll kill this off with emerge -C and
see what happens.
