[gentoo-user] firefox/xulrunner fails on "Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.2.7 and 1.9.2.7.

[William Kenworthy]

I am getting a "Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.2.7
and 1.9.2.7.

Firefox 3.6.7 and xulrunner 1.9.2.7

In the past, the fix was to recompile one or both a second time -
unfortunately I now have two broken (probably soon to be 3 - havent
tested yet :( systems where this is not working.

Help!

Have you tried running:
xulrunner-1.9.2 --register-global
as a root?

I
t gives 'Error: could not create '@GENTOO_PORTAGE_EPREFIX@/etc/gre.d'.

The file /etc/gre.d/1.9.2.7.system.conf contains:

[1.9.2.7]
GRE_PATH=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2
xulrunner=true
abi=x86-gcc3



(the above was manually copied/typed here)

As luck would have it, you'll have to rebuild again since Firefox 3.6.8 
/ Xulrunner 1.9.2.8 are now in portage ;-)
