Hi people, Mark Eichin and Stephen Pitts were kind enough to do extra research on why doesn't mozilla start on some occasions. And Stephen actually got it all right :)
If it is run by an ordinary user, mozilla can't write files in /usr/lib/mozilla directory, which is the $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME directory as set by /usr/bin/mozilla script. But it must write one file to start, and so the solution is to change the $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME definition in the wrapper script (/usr/bin/mozilla) to $HOME/.mozilla . Simple, isn't it? :) It's actually a known issue, I just ran a quick check in my mozilla mailing lists archives, and there are previous reports of this behaviour... Anyway, the package will be updated (probably to M8) soon. -- enJoy -*/\*- spelled 'iosip', or simply 'joseph'
