I've built a trimmed-down iceape, which only leaves iceape-dev and iceape-dev-bin.

The results so far (some packages still need to be built, since they're somewhat
large. For some reason we've seem to stuffed Xulrunner into the largest packages
in Debian :-)

Not in Lenny:
gecko-mediaplayer

Worked:
vlc
gnome-chemistry-utils
gtk-vnc
mozilla-bonobo
totem
mplayerplug-in
rhythmbox

Not tested yet:
gcj-4.2
openoffice.org
gcj-4.3
cacao-oj6
eclipse
openjdk-6

Failed:
mozilla-traybiff
icedtea-gcjwebplugin
classpath

The last three all failed to link against xpcom. Since icedove provides a
libxpcom.so, do you think it might be possible to adapt builds deps to it?

Cheers,
