That is not correct. Mozilla does provide xulrunner, released in sync with firefox versions: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/ It was decided some time ago to remove xulrunner from Gentoo (bug 403415). > It seems this is the same library (Or am I wrong?).

Also as far as I can see > xulrunner is splitted into a separate package in Debian and at > least Iceweasel uses it. Building firefox, thunderbird or seamonkey against xulrunner is possible, but not a supported configuration by Mozilla. Best regards, Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn
