Hi,
starting firefox the first time after a reboot gives me several fopen
errors:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
fopen: No such file or directory /usr/lib/mps/libnspr4.so
fopen: No such file or directory /usr/lib/mps/libssl3.so
----------------------------------------------------------------------
After some research I found these lines in the firefox wrapper script:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
if [ ! -f /tmp/firefox-preloaded -a -x /usr/lib/gdmprefetch ]
then
/usr/lib/gdmprefetch @${dist_bin}/firefox-preload.list
touch /tmp/firefox-preloaded
fi
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried to find something about this error in bugs.opensolaris.org and
Bug ID 6452960 seems to be the right one. But the suggested fix is
wrong.
After a download of 'gdm-2.13.0.10' from gnome.org, I found gdmprefetch
is simply doing fgets for every entry in firefox-preload.list. And a
closer look on calling gdmprefetch with truss shows some trailing blanks
in the list:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
% egrep ' $' /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-preload.list
/usr/lib/mps/libnspr4.so
/usr/lib/mps/libssl3.so
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Remove these blanks and the error messages are gone.
Is it possible to reopen a bug, or do I have to create a new one?
btw. does gdmprefetch really speed up the use of firefox?
Willi
P.S. I think gdmprefetch should remove trailing blanks while reading
input lines.
