Hi,

I have a question for http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianMozExtTeam

As example I take pwdhash. It is works with abrowser-3.5, firefox-3.0,
firefox-3.5, iceweasel.

The control looks like

Package: mozilla-pwdhash
Architecture: all
Depends: ${misc:Depends}
Recommends: ${xpi:Recommends}

According to the policy this should be changed to

Package: xul-ext-pwdhash
Architecture: all
Depends: ${misc:Depends}
Recommends: ${xpi:Recommends}
Provides: iceweasel-pwdhash
Enhances: iceweasel

and for Ubuntu it would look like this:

Package: xul-ext-pwdhash
Architecture: all
Depends: ${misc:Depends}
Recommends: ${xpi:Recommends}
Provides: abrowser-3.5-pwdhash, firefox-3.0-pwdhash, firefox-3.5-pwdhash
Enhances: abrowser-3.5, firefox-3.0, firefox-3.5

Is this correct? I could implement this into mozilla-devscripts.

Would it be good to add mozilla-pwdhash to Provides?

Cheers,
Benjamin

PS for everyone who do not like CDBS: mozilla-devscripts will work with
only debhelper, too. An example can be found here:
