Firefox and xulrunner 17 are the late known good (and matching) builds
for Fedora 17, you need the major versions to be matching (so
12/13/17) but if you were pulling in all the latest stable updates
into the build you would have matching ones AFAICT from koji so
there's some other issue.

I'm not sure what the following lines translate to but you should
never use the koji repositories as repos as they contain all sorts of
randomly tagged bits that the release repos don't.

olpc_frozen_1=0,koji.dist-f17-armv7hl
olpc_frozen_2=0,koji.dist-f17-armv7hl-updates-12.1.0
