Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 0.9.3-2
Severity: minor

I have an application (ftd4linux.2y.net, warning: in Dutch!) that builds against mozilla. To do this, it needs access to libgtkembedmoz.so, which
Debian has in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox. This directory is not in
ld.so.conf, so the file is not accessible by default.

Also, the header file gtkmozembed.h is not found anywhere.

I rebuild mozilla-firefox from source, and found the .h file after
building somewhere below the build-directory, so the file does exist,
it's just a matter of including it in the package.

I think this will affect more and more programs if mozilla grows from a web-browser to more like a toolkit.
