All right, take that back. This is the reason I did not launch
an update-all for quite some time actually: every time I do it
it seems that something breaks. I the install of firefox went
without problem, but I had neglected to quit and restart firefox.
Now it won't run and gives me the following error:

[Berlin ~]$ firefox&
[1] 17484
[Berlin ~]$ /sw/lib/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: line 451: 17496 Bus error           
    "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

[1]+  Exit 138                firefox

The number appearing before Bus error changes each time, but otherwise
the message is the same.

(By the way I thought exit codes could not be larger than 128?)

I know there's a fix proposing to remove the 
"~/.mozilla/firefox/randomstring.default/xpti.dat"
file, but I do not have a randomstring.default directory in my
firefox directory. Here is its content:
[Berlin ~]$ ls .mozilla/firefox/ 
profiles.ini            qgpbr3bq.default
[Berlin ~]$ ls .mozilla/firefox/qgpbr3bq.default/
88542054.s         bookmarks.bak      compatibility.ini  defaults.ini

[Berlin ~]$ fink list firefox

I'm using mac os 10.3.9.
$ fink --version
Package manager version: 0.24.9
Distribution version: 0.7.2.rsync

Any idea on how to fix this?

Cheers,
Clemence
