Actually I don't know, Merlin. This problem is very strange as
Firefox is supposed to come as a complete package, i.e. with its
own installer as opposed to a rpm.
Judging from your screenshot, the problem seems to be a missing or
defect "libplc4.so". On my system it says :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] kaj]$ locate libplc4.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/libplc4.so
/usr/lib/libplc4.so
/usr/lib/firefox-installer/libplc4.so
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libplc4.so
[EMAIL PROTECTED] kaj]$
If you get the same answer from "locate" someone wiser than me
please step in here.
