Hello all,

trying to open a link in an openoffice document with firefox, openoffice
complained:
run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.5/netscape-bin.

Trying to fix this, I found that openoffice tries to start netscape:
to cover this, the blfs book recommends to create a symlink
ln -s firefox /usr/bin/netscape.

However if run-mozilla.sh is called as netscape, it tries to execute
/usr/lib/firefox-2.x/netscape-bin, which sure enough does not exist. I
just added
ln -s firefox-bin /usr/lib/firefox-2.x/netscape-bin,
which works for me.

I would suggest to add this second link to the book to fix the netscape
call. Or are there better solutions?

Thorsten
