Bug Description

Binary package hint: prism

The official Gears xpi has never worked with Prism, one has needed to hack it a bit to get it to work.

In Prism 1.0b3 however, even hacked Gears don't work.

I was able to get gears running in prism, see bug #481498 for details. You'll need xul-ext-gears and not the xpi from google.

Lengthy explanation there: http://www.bottomlesspit.org/2010/05/03/ubuntu-1004-upgrade-broke-my-gmail-in-prism

I'll mark this bug as a dupe of #481498, feel free to undo if you disagree.
