Related to recent threads (installation of flash on firefox, etc). I've
got a debootstrap ia32 system installed in /emul. The intent is to
install firefox (i386) from tarballs at mozilla.org and use it without
chrooting.
I got past an initial missing libgtk-x11 library by installing it in the
/emul area (by chrooting into the /emul/ia32-linux area and running apt)
and running ldconfig.
The next issue may be tricker - firefox/gtk seems to be looking in an
exact location for pango libraries, finding the x86-64 versions, and
failing:
(firefox-bin:18830): Pango-WARNING **:
/usr/lib/pango/1.4.0/modules/pango-basic-fc.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
Failed to load Pango module for id: 'BasicScriptEngineFc'
(firefox-bin:18830): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion
`G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
(firefox-bin:18830): Pango-CRITICAL **: _pango_engine_shape_shape:
assertion `PANGO_IS_FONT (font)' failed
NOTE: /usr/lib/pango/1.4.0/modules/pango-basic-fc.so exists on the amd64
host system.
I'm considering some hacking like: symlinking /emul/ia32-linux to the
root directory of the ia32 distribution, modifying ld.so.conf (ia32) to
point only to these symlinked library areas, and running ldconfig (ia32
chroot). I have a funny feeling this is not going to work. Anyone with
experience with these types of problems: any advice is appreciated. If
I have any success I'll let folks know.
