okay thanks, that's starting to make a lot more sense. FYI, the |
| 24 |
solution of the Komodo dev team is to patch our mozilla to ignore |
| 25 |
this vars and any other vars mozilla might look at by default. we |
| 26 |
simply hadn't run into this situation until now, although googling |
| 27 |
for MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME reveals lots of other grief on mailing lists |
| 28 |
regarding different versions of mozilla-based software getting |
| 29 |
generally confused. |

thanks again, |
