Hi there,

this might not be a follow-up to the message below, but at least it's the same ball park...

I've just updated firefox from 1.0 to 1.0.4 and I now get the following error

---
/sw/lib/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: line 451: 24733 Bus error "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
---

I've tried to recompile all the usual suspects of mozilla-breaking tradition (glib, freetype, pango, you name it...) but couldn't get round this one...

Anybody has a clue?

Cheers
        Mattia

I'm trying to update the firefox package to 1.0.1 but keep running into a bus error on startup. Can someone try locally updating to firefox 1.0.1 and seeing if they also get a bus error when trying to run the program? The only thing that should need to be done in the .info file is to change the package version to 1.0.1, and the new MD5SUM is "ebaea974fea9460ab7050fff76b41cb1". That should get you the new source file to compile. The two executables to try are %p/bin/firefox (the normal run script) and %p/lib/firefox/firefox-bin (the actual executable). Thanks.

As a followup, how could I go about debugging this? The output from --enable-debug would not mean much to me (I'm not a programmer). The 1.0 patch applied cleanly and 1.0 -> 1.0.1 was mainly a security release, not a feature upgrade. I checked the diff between the two sources and nothing jumped out at me as being new yet somehow related to the porting patch in Fink.
