  == XULRunner upgrade procedure ==
+ PLD Ac, Th and Titanium are using custom builds of [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner XULRunner] to provide libraries for all applications using Gecko engine (except Iceweasel, Icedove and [:Packages/Iceape:Iceape]). Since Firefox 3.0 was released XULRunner may (and even should) be built from Firefox sources. Be sure to include CVE notes when updating this and other Mozilla packages. You may obtain them from http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html.
- PLD Ac and Th are using custom snapshots of [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner XULRunner] to provide libraries for all applications using Gecko engine (except Firefox, Thunderbird and SeaMonkey). To upgrade XULRunner you must create tarball with our snapshot sources. To do this checkout source from Mozilla CVS using branch of latest official Firefox release.

- {{{
- tag=FIREFOX_2_0_0_8_RELEASE
- version=1.8.1.8
- mkdir xulrunner-$version
- cd xulrunner-$version
- cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -r $tag mozilla/client.mk
- cd mozilla
- make -f client.mk checkout MOZ_CO_PROJECT=xulrunner
- rm -f .mozconfig.*
- cd ..
- tar jcf xulrunner-$version-$(date +%Y%m%d)-source.tar.bz2 --exclude=CVS mozilla/
- }}}
- 
- Be sure to change Firefox and XULRunner versions in example above to current ones.
- 
- Now when source tarball is ready you should adjust xulrunner.spec. Use your favourite editor and update version, snapshot and md5 sums. '''Do not commit yet'''! Try to build xulrunner.spec to see if some patches require update. If your machine is fast you may as well wait for whole build to complete.
- 
- If everything went ok you may upload snapshot tarball to your FTP account on dropin.pld-linux.org. When upload is finished all you need to do is to commit changes. Be sure to include CVE notes. You may obtain them from http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html.
  
  Following specs must be rebuild after XULRunner upgrade on all PLD distros:
