I do not see how this matters here. rpm knows enough ways to handle it: * explicit 'Requires: firefox = ...' in binary plugins
Packagers fall all too easily into the trap of >= and not updating the min/max versions based on what the extension claims. When ABI breaks, it will probably cause a crash and users might revert back to an older browser version which might not have the latest security fixes.
* perhaps virtual provides to handle changes in firefox micro versions * perhaps an XSL stylesheet which generates autodeps based upon the 'minVersion' and 'maxVersion' values in 'install.rdf'
This might work, but seems hackish and it will be made a moot point for F8 when there'll be a better way of doing things.
