I noticed that as well during the first episode, I haven't tried it as konquerer |
| 9 |
works fine for saving files. |

I think I might do the same. |

I have |
| 20 |
app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-glibc-2.3.5 (/emul/linux/x86/lib/libc-2.3.5.so) |
| 21 |
sys-libs/glibc-2.3.6-r3 (/lib32/libc-2.3.6.so) |
| 22 |
there are quite a few duplicates with differing versions over the 2 directories. |
| 23 |
I believe firefox uses the /emul/linux/x86/lib ones, as when I removed them it |
| 24 |
stopped working altogether. |
| 25 |
One thing I forgot to mention is that revdep-rebuid always complains |
| 26 |
about firefox-bin: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
broken /usr/local/firefox/components/libmozgnome.so (requires |
| 29 |
libxpcom.so libxpcom_core.so libplds4.so libplc4.so libnspr4.so |
| 30 |
libgconf-2.so.4 libORBit-2.so.0 liblinc.so.1 libgnomevfs-2.so.0 |
| 31 |
libbonobo-activation.so.4 libgnome-2.so.0 libbonobo-2.so.0) |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
broken /usr/local/firefox/components/libnkgnomevfs.so (requires |
| 34 |
libxpcom.so libxpcom_core.so libplds4.so libplc4.so libnspr4.so |
| 35 |
libgnomevfs-2.so.0 libbonobo-activation.so.4 libORBit-2.so.0 |
| 36 |
liblinc.so.1) |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
it only wants to re-emerge mozilla-firefox-bin, which is pointless for |
| 39 |
a binary package, |
| 40 |
so I've been ignoring it (same messages from when firefox was working). |

Duncan has me scared now. The disk is <6 months old, a 200G WD and its |
| 51 |
winter now, |
| 52 |
but I have no backup strategy, so I'll get that in order and then come |
| 53 |
back to firefox. |
