* Sync with Debian unstable.
* debian/patches
 - force-no-gsettings.patch: Remove, since gnome-mplayer provide the
   gsettings schemas.

26. By Chris Coulson on 2011-07-18

* Add patch to not automatically enable gsettings support when glib is
  new enough and gconf is disabled. This needs a schema file installing to
  make everything loading it not crash on startup (which doesn't seem to be
  provided). Works around startup crash affecting every browser and
  Thunderbird (LP: #812053). Note, this is a sledgehammer approach to stop
  everything from crashing. Someone needs to create a schema file if they
  want gsettings support enabled
  - add debian/patches/force-no-gsettings.patch
  - add debian/patches/series

* New upstream release.
* debian/patches:
 - 90_svn420_fix_null.patch: Remove, merged upstream.
 - 91_svn421_disable_npp_initialize.patch: Remove, merged upstream.
 - dont_use_libxul.patch: Remove, fixed upstream.
 - autotools.patch: Remove, not needed now.

* Don't use any Mozilla interfaces at all. The only interfaces used
  previously were nsIPrefBranch and nsIPrefService to change a preference
  which configured the UA string to "QuickTime/7.6.4". This functionality
  is Firefox specific anyway, and so doesn't work in any Webkit based browser
  (Chromium, Epiphany, Midori etc). It also doesn't work in Firefox 4
  and later since the plugin is running in a separate process, where setting
  prefs in the plugin process has no effect on the browser process at all
  - add debian/patches/dont_use_libxul.patch
  - add debian/patches/autotools.patch
  - update debian/patches/series
  - update debian/control to build-depend on firefox-dev
  - see https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/
          desktop-o-mozilla-rapid-release-maintenance and
    https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-May/033229.html

[ Cesare Tirabassi ]
* Update dependencies list (xulrunner, midbrowser and firefox-3.5)
* Add konqueror, opera and chromium in long description
* Removed all symlinks, lookup is now implemented upstream by all
  compatible packages (Closes: #581807).
  This may (and likely will) break backports.
* Updated watch file in line with new google code standard
  (thanks D. Leidert)

 - Drop build-depends on quilt, handle by format 3.0.
* debian/patches/01_xulrunner-20.patch:
 - Drop, replace by upstream patch 91_svn421_disable_npp_initialize.patch.

21. By Chris Coulson on 2011-02-14

  - Use proper NPERR and NPRES codes in the URLNotify and DestroyStream
  - Fix Apple HD Gallery site
  - Improved handling of .m3u playlists
  - Opera still has issues with apple.com/trailers sites,

19. By Cesare Tirabassi on 2010-02-17

* SVN snapshot release (LP: #86777, LP: #445767, Closes: #557761):
  - apple.com fixes
* Replace Build-Depends on iceape-dev with xulrunner-dev (Closes: #555916)
* No change bump of Standards-Version
* Converted to source format 3.0

  required libraries on purpose

18. By Cesare Tirabassi on 2009-09-24

  - change Build-Depends iceape-dev to libxul-dev
