xulrunner-dev should provide dh_xulrunner

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Binary package hint: xulrunner-1.9.1

I'm trying to merge/sync package chmsee from debian.

Since the 1.9.1 transition xulrunner-dev provides dh_xulrunner command which is used to detect xulrunner dependency.

Ubuntu's xulrunner-dev does not provide such binary, hence FTBFS.

Could you please add/merge/create dh_xulrunner?

FWIW - I manually worked around this in gnome-python-extras by removing the dh_xulrunner call and manually adding the dependencies

Ok but that would mean increased amount of merges Motu & Devs have to perform.

With my Debian Maintainer hat on I'd rather have my package Xiphos be
in sync with Debian. I guess I'll read the release information I'm
building on and optionally run dh_xulrunner.

I'm really not an expert in mozilla packaging but can you give more
details why Ubuntu shouldn't have dh_xulrunner? Seems like it should
handle transitions easier next time around.

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as Triaged and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better! Please report any other issues you may find.

Micah Gersten - thank you

Alexander Sack, If you want to I can prepare a branch with changes "borrowed" from Debian packaging to make sure our dh_xulrunner's match up. Unless you have other/more ideas.

Just tell me which branch you want me to target 1.9.1.head, i guess....?
