Re: Search bar in Firefox not working

 2. Do NOT change the extensions you compile in. The list of extensions
 in the configure script is absolutely non-negotiable. Just take what
 BLFS and the FF mozconfig file suggest (which should be the same).

D'oh!  That effectively was the problem.  Well, that'll teach me
to think to know better than the book.  Funnily, I found out today
what FBBG means.  I keep a collection of own build instructions
and I once thought that setting --enable-extensions=all is a good
thing.  I later then set it to --enable-extensions=default,
thinking that the default would be just fine, which apparently
(and surprisingly) isn't the case; this setting seems to be very
fragile.  I always used those modified build instructions since
then, making all my builds not working properly...  I forgot about
that when I said that my modifications from the BLFS instructions
are minor/insignificant.

So it's fixed now.  Thanks a lot to both of you that replied.
Much appreciated!  :)

Cheers,
jlh

default is for the mozilla suite (basically).  If you want to be sure
about the extensions for firefox, look at the file
mozilla/browser/config/mozconfig in the source tree.  For thunderbird,
they're in the mail directory.  The ac_add_options lines are all spit
to a configure statement.  That tells you what's needed for firefox,
especially the extensions.  And as they said above, this will break
your build if you don't follow this to the letter.
