Bug#693197: RFS: mozilla-gnome-keyring/0.6.5-1



Hi Ximin,

I'm mostly interested in this change in 0.6.6-1:

  * Build separate libraries against both xulrunner-dev and
    icedove-dev. (Closes: #690324)

So I can rebuild the extension for iceweasel/icedove 7.

I see that the package now builds
/usr/lib/xul-ext/gnome-keyring/platform/Linux_x86_64-gcc3/components/libgnomekeyring-icedove.so
/usr/lib/xul-ext/gnome-keyring/platform/Linux_x86_64-gcc3/components/libgnomekeyring.so


How does this exactly work? How does the iceweasel extension know that
it should load libgnomekeyring.so whereas the icedove extension should
load libgnomekeyring-icedove.so?

Just for fun, I've installed 0.6.6-1 and rm'ed
libgnomekeyring-icedove.so, but icedove still started without errors and
the extension seems to work without issues. What is this library then
good for?

Michael
