So, now I have rebuilt with the above change and it made no difference. :-( I am also getting other messages besides the error: (process:14840): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed (firefox:14840): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::sm-connect after class was initialised (firefox:14840): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::show-crash-dialog after class was initialised (firefox:14840): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::display after class was initialised (firefox:14840): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::default-icon after class was initialised It appears that Firefox and GLib are not working together. IIUC, you are using GLib-2.38.2 with no problems although you get the error message. -- James Tyrer Linux (mostly) From Scratch -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
