Uninstallability on few architectures, that have much more important
problems than that. And I'm not uploading every other day.
Plus, there are much less reverse dependencies on xulrunner than there
are on gtk.

It *IS* an archive problem. It shouldn't put packages from different
versions of the same source package in a single Packages file.
That is, if it references version 1.8.0.4-1 of libxul0d, it shouldn't
refer to version 1.8.0.5-2 of libxul-dev at the same time.

I'm not going to turn the -dev packages to arch: any for the sake of it.
