I don't remember the details, but it made things half better.

I'd expect that to fail as well, because of python-support trigger not
having been run yet.
Part of the problem is that the xulrunner-1.9.1's postinst or trigger can
run with python-xpcom unpacked but not registered with python-support.
Adding update-python-modules -p in python-xpcom postinst could make
things slightly better, but that would still leave xulrunner-1.9.1's
postinst complaining if it's run before python-xpcom's.
What if xulrunner-1.9.1's postinst would do nothing for configure ?
would the trigger still kick in when one installs xulrunner-1.9.1 only?
