mozilla install broken?

2001-09-25 Thread Joe Barnett 


Hi there, I'm trying to install the latest mozilla packages (0.9.4) in
SID on my unstable box, and I'm getting errors in the postinstall
script.  to be more specific, the regxpcom process segfaults.

I had these packages installed, but something got mucked up with
them so i apt-get remove --purged everything, and deleted all file
references i could find, but now that i'm trying to reinstall mozilla,
regxpcom segfaults, causing the postinst scripts to fail

I'm sure its something with my system, but I don't know where to look:
any ideas?

Thanks,
Joe

bugs.debian.org/mozilla-browser gives you this bug number: 108946

I upgraded this morning, and now no Mozilla, Nautilus-Mozilla or Galeon.

The bleeding edge hurts :-)

It's not just you. I saw the same problem. Oh well, I'll continue using
Opera 'til they get it fixed. I'm sure more people will run into it and
we'll all know when it's fixed. :)

I've looked into in more and the problem is with libc6.  If you use the
next-to-latest version (2.2.4-1, NOT 2.2.4-2) everything works dandily.
