Must correct myself here:

While calling "xulrunner-1.9 application.ini" still works fine and
starts a conkeror, "xulrunner-1.9 --register-global" and
"xulrunner-1.9 --register-user" throw the following error:

  Error: unrecognized application.ini path.

strace shows that xulrunner-1.9 tries to read "--register-global" as
application.ini file, e.g. tries to read
/usr/lib/conkeror/--register-global

Any idea how to register conkeror with XULRunner 1.9b5?

P.S. to Jeremy: Will make one single binary package since
--install-app generates an ELF binary instead of a shell script with
"/usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9 /usr/lib/conkeror/application.ini" as I
expected.
