[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/bin# firefox
*** nsExtensionManager::_disableObsoleteExtensions - failure, catching exception so finalize window can close /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.6/run-mozilla.sh: line 159: 25954 Segment Fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"}


I downloaded the version 1.06 (I changed the commands from 1.0 to 1.06)

I see a couple issues here.  First, in the book, the configure statement
--with-default-mozilla-five-home=/usr/lib/firefox-1.0
is obviously wrong since the directory for firefox-1.0.6 is /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.6.

You seem to have addressed that, but it looks that you made a typo. You have 1.06 and it's 1.0.6. You basically configured firefox with a default home that doesn't exist (/usr/lib/firefox-1.06).

I guess it's possible that there's a bigger fault at play, but I'm pretty sure firefox will with the instructions as they are. I also looked at the default settings and everything looks OK for the extensions and other configure options:

[11:21pm [EMAIL PROTECTED] less mozilla/browser/config/mozconfig

# This file specifies the build flags for Firefox. You can use it by adding:
#  . $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig
# to the top of your mozconfig file.

export MOZ_PHOENIX=1
mk_add_options MOZ_PHOENIX=1

ac_add_options --disable-ldap
ac_add_options --disable-mailnews
ac_add_options --enable-extensions=cookie,xml-rpc,xmlextras,pref,transformiix,universalchardet,w
ebservices,inspector,gnomevfs,negotiateauth
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
ac_add_options --disable-composer
ac_add_options --enable-single-profile
ac_add_options --disable-profilesharing

The ac_add_options are what is passed to configure. This is probably not important, but the configure option
--enable-application=browser
is wrong for firefox-1.0x. It only applies to the trunk builds at the moment or anything else you get out of cvs.

Likewise, I don't know if any of the following (not default) options could cause problems:
--enable-xinerama
--enable-reorder
--enable-strip
--enable-cpp-rtti
--disable-pedantic
but I imagine that since they haven't caused problems so far (and it built) that they're not the problem.

I suspect you just need to change the line to
--with-default-mozilla-five-home=/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.6
,rebuild and everything will work.
