36 Well ... I uninstalled mozilla-firefox and installed
37 mozilla-firefox-bin. It said, "NB -- you are installing a 32-bit
38 Firefox". The good news is that it works with Java and the R search
39 engine! The bad news is that it doesn't have all the *other* plugins
40 that the 64-bit compiled Firefox did. Do I need to re-emerge them? Will
41 revdep-rebuild clean this up?
