This is nucking futs: gene@coyote:~/bin/firefox-37/firefox$ file firefox firefox: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, BuildID[sha1]=0xd9c52e07232a78690be6d991546a12bb3668601d, stripped For GNU Linux-2.6.18? And I'm running 3.2.0-4amd64? Itself what, 2 years old? What the hell are the chances for that being compatible when its well north of 6 years old? My CNC machinery is running Ubuntu-10.04-4 LTS with kernel 2.6.32-122-rtai, 5 years old this month. This could drive me to drink, except I'm a DM-II and that means one a day max if I want to keep my feet for a while yet... > > Does using squeeze to unpack a tarball screw things up this bad > > Certainly not.
