Sigh.  pcmanx-gtk2.spec includes:

         # We need to own this dir, because we don't want to Requires: firefox
         %{_libdir}/mozilla/plugins/

I think not.

The package already "Requires: xulrunner"; which requires
mozilla-filesystem, which is what owns %{_libdir}/mozilla/plugins.

Yeah, that predates mozilla-filesystem. pcmanx-gtk2 is safe to die if no
one wants it (although, having a telnet client plugin for firefox is
somewhat cool).

This does actually bring up a more general issue.

webkitgtk doesn't depend on mozilla-filesystem; should it?

NPAPI plug-ins ought to have a dependency that can be satisfied by any NPAPI container. Does Fedora need to define such a thing?
