I also ran it from the CLI and the message I received is as follows: *** nss-shared-helper: Shared database disabled (set NSS_USE_SHARED_DB to enable). kmozillahelper(23373)/kdecore (KSycoca): Trying to open ksycoca from "/ var/tmp/kdecache-zach/ksycoca4" /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/ libkdecore.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN9QListData6removeEi I thought it a little strange that Seamonkey runs just fine; I figured it would probably be using the same shared database but it wouldn't be the first time I was wrong if it doesn't.

NOW, you tell me that don't use it as it really an alpha/beta/ceta version of whatever! VEry misleading since "factory" doesn't mean factory-made instead of hand-made which can be the broken version. The Factory should be renamed to Experimental, use at your own risk.

Post it as a bug to the openSUSE factory developers. Seamonkey, which essentially is using the xulrunner/gre engine (firefox got's its OWN version of that) is always a bit behind the developements in firefox. -- ****************************************************************** ** Eef Hartman, Delft University of Technology, dept.

Had to go hunting to find the message in the projects mailing list that specified that will be the next release. Interesting to know that we might even have a first with the release after that as it's not yet been decided if that release will be 11.5 or if it will go to 12.0. So, seven months from now, the discussion may happen all over again :) Regards, David Bolt -- Team Acorn: www.distributed.net | | openSUSE 11.3RC2 32b | openSUSE 11.1 64b | openSUSE 11.2 64b | | openSUSE 11.1 PPC | TOS 4.02 | RISC OS 4.02 | RISC OS 3.11 |
