1 Hello everyone,
2
3 The mozilla team has been making some changes to the mozilla eclasses
4 to make them easier to use, remove obsolete code, and reduce
5 duplicated code between mozilla products. Note that the only ebuilds
6 using these eclasses are:
7
8 net-libs/xulrunner
9 www-client/firefox
10 www-client/icecat
11 www-client/seamonkey
12 mail-client/thunderbird
13 x11-plugins/enigmail
14
15 The changes are straightforward and mostly backwards-compatible: the
16 only side-effect will be duplicated configure options in the older
17 ebuilds. I'm attaching just the new eclasses since the diff is hard to
18 read — lines were moved around a lot. The eclasses are being tested in
19 the mozilla overlay[1], and can be found there as well.

21 Comments for improvement are appreciated.

23 Thanks!
