Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg-4
Severity: important

Firefox segfaults at startup if run by a normal user. It does run if
executed with root privileges.

gdb appears to indicate that it cannot find
/usr/lib/firefox/libxpcom_core.so , however this file exists and
permissions are 644.

I have moved ~/.mozilla out of the way; the result is the same. I have
also purged and reinstalled firefox, firefox-gnome-support, and
firefox-dom-inspector with no change in the behavior.

Version 1.5.dfsg-4 does not display this behavior on my i386 system;
that is why i surmise it must be an amd64-specific problem.
