Many (but not all) of this type of package can be built against |
20 |
xulrunner instead of firefox/seamonkey. Some do it automatically and |
21 |
some need the USE flags to be set up this way. Get rid of any firefox |
22 |
or seamonkey use flags and add +xulrunner use flag and see what a |
23 |
emerge with --newuse wants to do. |
