[mirror-admin] Fedora 9 problem with latest updates

Hi Red Hat,

FYI:

There is a problem with the latest round of Fedora 9 updates (may be 8 too ?)
which causes an update to fail for probably most people:

There are new xulrunner-*-1.9.0.1-1.fc9* packages which provide
"gecko-libs = 1.9.0.1" for several new updates (firefox, yelp, devhelp).

However there are no new versions for totem-mozplugin & nspluginwrapper.
The old versions still depend on "gecko-libs = 1.9" which is provided
by the old xulrunner.  So the update fails (see details below)/

	friendly greetings,
	Rob van Nieuwkerk

PS: please let me know if there's a more appropriate place to report
    these problems !, I just mention it here because I now have a Fedora
    mirror with a problem)
