[gentoo-user] epiphany and firefox want incompatible versions of xulrunner

[Allan Gottlieb]

I have had both epiphany and firefox on my machine for quite a while,
but the latest stable of each are now "incompatible".
Specifically they require incompatible versions of xulrunner.

Is there a reason why epiphany cannot use xulrunner-1.9-1?

thanks,
allan

The latest version of epiphany is 2.26.3. try unmerging your epiphany
first.

Not if your @stable.

I'm probably going to wait it out but I may re-compile epiphany using webkit if the slot conflict 
pursues.

But firefox 3.5 is not marked stable. Then there is some mixup here.

Something must have been funny.  My system is stable and it did ask for
firefox 3.5 (as I showed in my original post).  However, the problem has
disappeared with today's sync.  Apparently all is now well.

You're lucky as you caught a sync during the hours when ff 3.5
actually was stable for some select arches:
