[Resolved] Issue with mozilla-firefox-52.2.0esr-x86_64-1gv

[DrCR]

Not sure if this is a systemic issue or just me. After Firefox package upgrade, it immediately crashes when I tried to run it. I obscured my ~/.mozilla, but the issue persisted. I'm running Salix 14.0 KDE.

Here's what showed when trying to run from konsole:

I reverted to mozilla-firefox-45.9.0esr-x86_64-1gv via setting my package repo to http://mirrors.xmission.com/salix/x86_64/13.37/ -- not sure if there would have been a better way to rollback. 45.9.0esr works just fine. I noticed when I installed it, it also installed gnome-vfs-2.24.4-x86_64-3gv. I upgrade to mozilla-firefox-52.2.0esr-x86_64-1gv to see if the issue would persists with gnome-vfs installed, and it did indeed. I've rolled back to mozilla-firefox-45.9.0esr-x86_64-1gv for the time being.

Just to be 100% certain, I just did a fresh Salix64 14.0 installation, installed the new firefox, it pulled gtk+3 and apulse with it, and it works. It's just a guess, but maybe it's something to do with your KDE theme?

[DrCR]

Hum, I liked Salix14's KDE setup so I basically just left it as shipped. The theme is Oxygen. Is there anything KDE related, in addition to ~/.kde, that I should obscure before upgrading Firefox and seeing if it then works?

Also, based on your note, would it make sense to also try removing gtk+-1.2.10-x86_64-5, gtk+2-2.24.10-x86_64-2, gtk+3-3.4.4-x86_64-1, and letting the new Firefox package pull down whatever it may desire?

Do any other gtk+3 apps work? You can try brasero or gnome-games.

Also, based on your note, would it make sense to also try removing gtk+-1.2.10-x86_64-5, gtk+2-2.24.10-x86_64-2, gtk+3-3.4.4-x86_64-1, and letting the new Firefox package pull down whatever it may desire?

No, it should already have pulled everything.

Since the rollback to 45.9.0esr interestingly installed gnome-vfs-2.24.4-x86_64-3gv, perhaps I should proactively try installing gvfs for the new Firefox package?

[gapan]

Wait. Why didn't gnome-games get installed? It says it need guile, but it's an unmet dependency? That's not right. And I don't think hal is in 14.0 anyway. What's your /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc?

[DrCR]

Taking a look a that now. I suspect I made a change to that some time ago. (I'm not having success with the salix.hostingxtreme.com, even now, after a cp slapt-getrc.new slapt-getrc.)

[DrCR]

Brasero and gnome-games are now installed. Succesfully ran Brasero and Mahjongg (part of gnome-games) from the KDE start menu.

Brasero and Mahjongg run succesfully from both the KDE start menu and Konsole. I did the upgrade to Firefox, and the issue persists with Firefox (even with ~/.mozilla obscured). Did a blanket slapt-get --upgrade, and the issue with Firefox persists.
