Howdy,
I recently did a upgrade which included glibc. Now both Firefox and
Seamonkey has problems starting. I have several profiles and some
work and some don't. Using safe-mode works which makes me think the
browsers themselves are OK but something else got messed up. The only
package I see that I just updated is glibc that might could cause this
issue. This is the recent emerge list from emerge.log:
<<<< SNIP >>>>
I see a couple python packages but not sure that they would affect
anything. Is anyone else having this issue? Anyone have a clue what
could cause it?
Right now, I'm testing to see if it is a add-on that is causing it.
I'm cutting them on one at a time but since sometimes it works and
sometimes it don't, makes it hard to know if it is even a add-on or
not much less which one.
I thought about going back to the old version of glibc but we know
that is not a good idea. That one is sort of a one way street. If no
one has any ideas, I may try a emerge -e world and see if that helps any.
Thanks much.

OK. My emerge -e world finished, with a couple that failed such as
libreoffice, kscreen and such, but the problem remains. Since no one
else is having this problem, based on no one posting about it, then I
have to assume it is a add-on I use. Also, safe-mode works too. Odd
thing is, when I start it on the command line to see if it reports any
errors, I get the same output whether it works or not. This is what I
get either way.
dale@fireball / $ seamonkey -p -new-instance
(process:11385): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion
'sys_page_size == 0' failed

No clue what that Glib error is about but either way, it works even when
it spits out that error. So, now to play with these add-ons and see
which one is the offender. One of them is about to be on my bad list.
So far, adblock works. Whew!!!
