I looked into the symlinking issue. There was a bug open on this upstream that
has now been fixed and allows for proper symlinking to the mozilla wrapper
script. http://bugzilla.songbirdnest.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13265

1.1 is due out in the next week or two and this fix will be in it.

@kwizart

I implemented some more fixes and spun rev 3. It's located here:

http://rpm.rutgers.edu/fedora/songbird.spec
http://rpm.rutgers.edu/fedora/songbird-1.0.0-3.fc10.src.rpm

The mozilla startup script I just discussed sets up the proper LD paths to
ensure that songbird only uses the provided internal libraries, but I see what
you're getting at with the other package provides. I'm looking at the other
mozilla packages to ensure that songbird is filtered and doesn't end up
providing libxul.so (and others) to the general package population.

I also trimmed the vendor source ball to only the required packages. The
src.rpm is a much more managable size now. With the next release coming out
soon I'm going to try and work with upstream (stevel) to get a reduced size
tarball next time.

Right now the two major bugs I see are the symlinking wrapper issue in 13265
(which will be fixed soon) and filtering the internal provides to only the
necessary ones. Anything else stand out as an obvious problem?
