I'm having fits about dbus, at least that's what I think? |

Firefox 3, epiphany, and firefox 3 bin all do this. Attach any file (as any |
| 4 |
user, on KDE or Gnome) and firefox immediately crashes. Root can attach |
| 5 |
files. |

Today I upgraded these before I noticed this problem: dev-libs/expat, |
| 10 |
net-misc/dhcpcd, |
| 11 |
dev-cpp/libglademm, dev-cpp/gconfmm, net-dns/bind-tools, |
| 12 |
mail-mta/ssmtp, sys-apps/coreutils. |

Yesterday it worked. Of course I"ve been twiddling. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I found a suggestion to run firefox in safe-mode ($ firefox -safe-mode). I |
| 17 |
did this. It's just a way to dismember the add-ons and customizations of a |
| 18 |
user, and I'd already recompiled. But these errors were received after the |
| 19 |
crash in the terminal: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
alan@localhost ~ $ /usr/bin/firefox -safe-mode |
| 23 |

This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. |
| 31 |
D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace |
| 32 |
Aborted |

I am most interested in learning how to troubleshoot dbus. I read one post |
| 39 |
where the suggestion was made to delete dbus. What does that mean? I've |
| 40 |
been having numerous problems with permissions. They are gradually going |
| 41 |
away, and I just emailed a friend that the system has finally stablized to |
| 42 |
some degree. Then I did an # emerge -uDv world and this happens. Where can |
| 43 |
I find out more about dbus? |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
gtkmm won't compile. There's an upstream fix, I think, and I might do a |
| 46 |
local version bump, with much trepidation. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
Thank you for any advice. |
