Upcoming changes with Iceweasel/Xulrunner/libmozjs

[Mike Hommey]

Hi,

Following last week's thread[1] about what should happen with Iceweasel,
xulrunner and libmozjs, here is how things are going to happen within
the next few days/weeks:

- Iceweasel 4.0 beta12 is going to experimental. It will have to go
  through NEW first, though. The package is however already available on
  http://mozilla.debian.net/
- Iceweasel 3.5 will stay in unstable, and will receive a new upstream
  next week.
- Iceweasel 3.6 will disappear from the official Debian archives, but
  will remain supported through http://mozilla.debian.net/. You can
  already set your apt sources to use iceweasel 3.6 from there if you
  want.

Maintainers of reverse build dependencies of xulrunner-dev and
libmozjs-dev are invited to update their package to build against
version 2.0~b12-1 and subsequent. Please drop messages on the mozilla
maintainers list[2] if you need assistance, or file bugs if you hit
some issues (which I'm pretty confident will appear).

Thanks for your attention,

Mike
