Hi Paul,

Thank you! You saved my bacon.

This is the second time in a couple days that I've seen reports of a
traceback like that. The last time it had something to do with
Firefox.

May be a problem with either Ubuntu updgrade or install procedure for SpiderMonkey, since all worked fine prior to taking those steps.

The libtoolize error means you don't have a proper libtool
installation. You should be able to solve that with something like
`sudo apt-get install libtool` on the command line.

Loaded libtool. That fixed Firefox.

Be good to know what killed Firefox. But I'm not savvy enough to figure it out.

./configure complained about a few other missing files, which I loaded. It finally killed me with note that my version of Erlang is not up-to-date. Guess this means that I have to compile Erlang from source which makes me very uncomfortable. Taking off my apt-get training wheels is a bit terrifying, not least because of the kinds of problems I've had loading couchdb.

But I guess this is life at the bleeding edge.

Sorry to hear about your problems and glad it worked out okay for you.

We're running a Track B Q&A session later today, feel free to drop by and we can assist with the installation ;)

I also updated the wiki page with more complete instructions.

Cheers
Jan
