Wow, that's a lot of updates due to gecko code... Based on the number of projects which appear to be duplicating the code, anyone know if there is any plan to make gecko into a separate library?

Libraries? Posted Feb 14, 2008 0:01 UTC (Thu) by edschofield (guest, #39993) [Link] Interesting question. It seems this slashdotter asked the same question 4.5 years ago. This page claims XULRunner will provide a "libxul" (but gives no timeframe).
Libraries? Posted Feb 14, 2008 1:31 UTC (Thu) by djpig (subscriber, #18768) [Link] libxul already exists, at least here on my Debian boxes:$ apt-cache rdepends libxul0d libxul0d Reverse Depends: xulrunner-gnome-support xulrunner python-xpcom liferea-xulrunner libmozillainterfaces-java libgtk-mozembed-ruby1.8 seahorse miro liferea libghc6-mozembed-dev libdevhelp-1-0 epiphany-gecko epiphany-extensions democracyplayer zekr yelp videolink python-gnome2-extras liferea-xulrunner libswt-mozilla-gtk-3.3-jni libgecko2.0-cil kazehakase hunspell-uz hunspell-ne hunspell-en-us hunspell-de-de hunspell-de-ch hunspell-de-at hunspell-da galeon epiphany-extensions epiphany-browser chmsee (Note: actual output of command edited for brevity)
Libraries? Posted Feb 15, 2008 13:19 UTC (Fri) by nosnilmot (subscriber, #746) [Link] In F7 & F8 there is just one copy of the Gecko libs, provided by firefox, but there's no guaranteed ABI stability between releases so every update requires a rebuild of all users.
