Miro fails to load "fake browser" UI after 1.2.3-2 upgrade

Hello all,

I just recently did a system upgrade and afterward I noticed that miro was basically completely broken. The application runs but all I get are Gtk widgets (menubar, volume controls, searchbox on bottom etc.) and all other parts of the UI which are browser driven are white space. Heres my console output:

[maddog39@desktop ~]$ miro

I even went as far as building old PKGBUILDs from SVN and reinstalling and deleting miro's dot directory and the problem still persists. I dont know what exactly was upgraded that may have caused it to break. Any help at all is appreciated.

Thanks!

Possibly upstream, due to xulrunner update (there was one recently, no?).

I need real, proper pen and paper for this.

I will go submit one right now if someone hasnt already. I will probably also say something on the mailing list.

[Edit]
I dont think this is the only package broken by xulrunner.

FFS! When are they going to fix that damn bug tracker. This is the 5th time ive tried to register and consistantly tells me my user does not exist. It also says that directions for using the registration code will be in the email. There arent any directions and using the confirmation code as the password doesnt work. I guess its to the mailing list then.....

Well... as you probably already know, Miro still does not work (yet).

*Sigh* Still cant activate my account on flyspray. Aaron said in this (http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/10871) bug report that Miro needed to be updated to work with xulrunner 1.9 although thats not the case as indicated here:
