Heya,
It looks like your package still depends on a mozilla library in
testing. As upstream declared mozilla to be dead and moved all
functionality that is needed to embed gecko and friends to a new
software suite (xulrunner), you should update your package to work with
those. At the moment, it looks like we don't want to release etch with
mozilla [1].
This means that your package needs to update it's
build-dependencies to the new packages provided by xulrunner. The
interface shouldn't have changed, so looking at this mapping, changing
the packaging a bit and doing a test-build should be enough:
libnspr-dev -> libnspr4-dev
libnspr4 -> libnspr4-0d
libnss-dev -> libnss3-dev
libnss3 -> libnss3-0d
mozilla-dev -> libxul-dev (probably, you may need to change include pathes)
Maybe you've been lucky and upstream already transitioned to use the
xulrunner environment.
Marc
Footnotes:
[1] Mozilla security maintenance isn't easy anyway, but releasing it
and with that promising security support *after* it was declared
dead by upstream would be insane. So we don't want to do that.
