Hi,
I'm maintaining the Finnish spell checking extension for Firefox called
Mozvoikko. Upstream recently released a Javascript-based version of the
extension, which I've now packaged in Rawhide. Spec file here:

Xulrunner maintainers, would you like me to push this new version to
F-16 and F-15 as well? It would not need to be rebuilt every time
Xulrunner is updated, but of course there is some risk in doing updates
like this in stable releases.
I guess it's up to you. How compatible is the new version? Does it need
an update for new firefox versions? (extensions are incompatible with
new ff version sometime).
For now, I've only packaged the extension for Firefox, but I
would like
to add Thunderbird support as well. What would be the best way to do
that? I could probably symlink the extension directory from
%{_datadir}/mozilla/extensions/%{firefox_app_id}/%{mozvoikko_ext_id} to
%{_datadir}/mozilla/extensions/%{thunderbird_app_id/%{mozvoikko_ext_id}
but are directory symlinks still probalematic for RPM? Should I just
copy all the files to Thunderbird's extension directory too, to avoid
the symlinking?
I think the symlinks are okay, we use them to link langpacks already.
ma.
