Dear Jörn,
Would you mind advising whether /etc/skel/.mozilla is part of the
base package please? I'd come to the conclusion that there are only
effectively two filesystems created by OTC - /opt in opt and then
everything else in base but I'm obviously wrong if
/etc/skel/.mozilla/firefox comes from the firefox-17 package.
All the best,
Mark

Hi Mark,
as far as i know, every firefox we (otc) have done, have a version in thier
name. But please double check this. There maybe be other reasons why it
does not work.
Just some more word about firefox.
Why are you trying to have an own firefox package? There is already one
(the one inside the VM). Please use this repository to install it.
deb http://devel.openthinclient.org/firefox-17/5f1b84gdfcf3e1d/ ./
As usual there is also a source package
http://devel.openthinclient.org/firefox-17/5f1b84gdfcf3e1d/firefox-17_1.0.0-17.0.1-02.tar.gz
Use this source and have your adaptions. See the README inside for
instructions.
Yesterday i've tried to build a package with firefox 19. But it seems we're
missing some libs to run the new xul/xpcom stuff. We need a new base!
Regards, Jörn

Thanks Jörn, that explains it. I'll stay with my own version of Firefox
then as I can easily deploy the script that sets the path with it.
With reference to Please never have two packages with the same name in
different repositories - are you meaning that this is why my attempt to
have a package called firefox didn't work? I can understand why it
would cause problems if two packages have the same name, but I thought
all the existing Firefox packages had the version on the end (-3, -5,
-17). Is there another one that isn't visible from the Package
management tree and is called just firefox?
All the best,
Mark

Hi Mark,
Firefox needs some newer GTK version than the base packages delivers. So
the newer one ist installed under /opt/gtk/ and must be used with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
In the base version of experimantal the separate GTK was joined into the
base.
Please never have two packages with the same name in diffenrent
repositories.

Jörn

Dear All,
This problem is due to library paths. I've now got my own Firefox 17
package with a script to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that the correct version
of GTK (/opt/gtk/lib) gets loaded but I'd ideally like to use the one
from the OTC server. Does anyone know why it doesn't set the library
path itself?
All the best,
Mark

When I try and run Firefox 17 on the client, I get an error saying
that Firefox needs GTK+ 2.10 but I only have GTK+ 2.8. This seems
strange, as the server package manager says the installed package is
0.4.5-2.16-2, which I infer to mean GTK+ 2.16. Is there something
wrong with paths?
