Re: firefox-bin dumps core



Regarding problems with getting firefox-bin to run under NetBSD 5 on I386
(with default Xorg installation) using pkgsrc-2009Q1

I have done a bit more testing and also copied this mail to pkgsrc-users 

A test run of firefox-linux on another system produced the same core dump. I
then decided to run it in debug mode:

$ firefox-linux --debug
/usr/pkg/lib/firefox-linux/run-mozilla.sh -g 
/usr/pkg/lib/firefox-linux/firefox-bin
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/pkg/lib/firefox-linux

DISPLAY=:0.0
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/pkg/lib/firefox-linux:/usr/local/lib/mre/mre-2.0.0.19

       ADDON_PATH=/usr/pkg/lib/firefox-linux

     moz_debugger=

The message above regarding 'no shared library support' looks very suspicious.

Has anyone managed to run firefox-bin on an I386 system under NetBSD 5 ?

Its always worked for me on Netbsd 4 (with XFree86) - but it really would like 
it on NetBSD 5 (& Xorg) now!

Regards,
Dave
