Update firefox first, then xulrunner. The old version of firefox provides gecko-sdk, the new one doesn't anymore.

What xulrunner is: it's the firefox engine without all the bad API change stuff around it, suitable for embedding in other applications like epiphany.

This bug is the same one you hit last week with nss-mdns and avahi.

Ah ok, that's why it worked for me now, I tried to add IgnorePkg = xulrunner and upgraded my system then i tried Upgrading again without ignorepkg and it worked... so just pacman -S mozilla-firefox then pacman -Syu will be enough for whom having the same trouble

Thx JGC for ur reply
