The update to python-virtualenv 1.10.x broke building Firefox and Thunderbird with the system virtualenv, so it has to use its own bundled one instead. Since virtualenv is not a runtime dependency, it's not a big deal. However, there is apparently a solution to this problem, as Mandriva has updated python-virtualenv again with their Firefox 17.0.9 update, saying that they've fixed this issue. Hopefully we can get this fix into Mageia as well. http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/advisories/mes5/MDVSA-2013:237/ Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:

Is MES's Firefox/Thunderbird patched to build with system virtualenv? Mageia's is, but this no longer works on Mageia 2. It does still work on Mageia 3 and Cauldron. I'm not sure why.
Yes certainly not related since mga2 have Python 2.7 will try to investigate
I have a possible patch for python-virtualenv in mga2, but what puzzle me is that the only diff between mga2 and mga3 is python version (2.7.3 and 2.7.5) so I wonder if it is better to patch python-virtualenv or if this bug reveal a bug in python 2.7.3 in mga2. In the latest, the best solution would be to upgrade python to 2.7.5 (like we did in mga3) since it is a bug fix release, not a major one.

I had a patch, but now even if under my mga2 the build is ok, it fail on the build system and I don't understand why I really think that it is our python under mga2 that have a problem
The problem is in python package, by the way I don't know why we didn't updated it to 2.7.5 as we did in mga3 2.7.5 fix a lot of bugs. So I change the rpm package assignment to python.
