Hi everyone,

I've tried out the newest version of Firefox 1.5 today (release client 3) 
using the binary package on the Mozilla website that is provided by the 
Sun Beijing team, and when I tried to run Firefox again after extracting 
the files from the tar archive into /usr/local/firefox, it aborted with 
this error message:

---- start ----

ld.so.1: firefox-bin: fatal: relocation error: file 
/var/local/firefox/components/libmozgnome.so: symbol 
__1cUNS_NewGenericModule26FpnMnsModuleInfo_ppnJnsIModule__I_: referenced 
symbol not found

---- stop ---

Does anyone know what this means? I see 'gnome' in the error message so 
I'm guessing that means there is a problem with the GNOME libraries - 
perhaps a side-effect of having many patches in the Solaris 9 recommended 
patch kits from SunSolve fail to install when I've run the 'installpatch' 
script that comes with those patch archives.

Does that sound plausible? I'll need to go back to an earlier release of 
Firefox to get around this problem but that's no biggy since I tried 
ugrading to Solaris 10 earlier and that gave a serious problem too (which 
I've just posted about into some of the Sun newsgroups)...

Thanks for any advice you're able to provide with this Firefox problem.

Regards,

Craig.
