Using that method I can see that the libraries are indeed loaded.

When firefox starts the plugin-container process it may just set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable for it, just like the script from the binary packages do, or it may do something more complicated.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: plugin-containers missing libraries
There's no firefox-bin in /usr/bin on my system, there's just # ls -l /usr/bin/firefox* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 May 9 19:13 /usr/bin/firefox - /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox And in that directory, again no shell script; # file /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox-bin /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox-bin: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, stripped System is ~amd64 for firefox/thunderbird I'm also using ~amd64 firefox (37.0.2) and mine is also a binary. Anyways, what this means is that the library is not loaded by the loader but by firefox at runtime so it's nothing to worry about. I guess some versions or build use a script to preload the library. How do you tell that the library is loaded by firefox? How would it know to load libraries for other binaries?

So the libraries are there but not in the list of directories searched. I could do something like # echo /usr/lib64/firefox /etc/ld.so.conf.d/06firefox.conf env-update but then thunderbird may get firefox's version of libxul which may be incompatible, right? Yes. Don't do that. -h
