sounds good to me though i believe it was 0.9.9-1 that introduced this bug. and i know it was fixed in -4 the inbetween version s I'm not certain of so only users that install 0.9.9-1 need worry about this issue. [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: >OK, I can confirm that simply upgrading to mozilla-0.9.9

OK, I can confirm that simply upgrading to mozilla-0.9.9-4 does not repair the problem, but by manually running "sudo chown drm:staff /Users/drm/.mozilla" I was able to get it to run. Next, I tried manually deleting /Users/drm/.mozilla and then reinstalling mozilla. This also worked fine. So I

hmm I was just a suggestion...I don't know very much about hte mozilla port haven't looked at it. Maybe add a check to the mozilla script? I dont' know how it's being made or why it's wrong when being made. But i don't know that is the problem. I'm glad that you figured out the issue with rm a

That doesn't explain things in my case. I do all of my compiling and installing while logged in as root, NOT via sudo. (Why? long story, see the P.S. if you care). So the install script never heard of user drm, and couldn't be responsible for creating /Users/drm/.mozilla. See, the real proble

I think it's a problem with the install script...since it's run in sudo mode it's prolly making the ~/.mozilla directly from the install script and not to %i. That would be my guess. Maybe run a check on ~/.mozilla if owned by root nuke it?? I don't know haven't thought of that part or hack the

OK, that might be the problem in my case. My ~/.mozilla directory is owned by root, but how did that happen? And more importantly, how can we possibly fix this in a fink context? We can't tell fink users "if you want to run mozilla, make sure that you and all other users on your machine first d

simple check ~/.mozilla and make sure it's owned by user not root. I had the same problem and Feanor helped me fix it on the devel list. [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: >OK, we can look at it. > >I still have it installed. (It compiled and installed just fine.) I >unlimit >the stacksize (just in cas

OK, we can look at it. I still have it installed. (It compiled and installed just fine.) I unlimit the stacksize (just in case), and try to run it, and it silently dies with no crash log and entry in the console log. Pretty hard to debug, I have to admit... -- Dave

I know there was also a fix for mozilla 0.9.9, and 0.4 is released I think 0.9.9 should be re looked at now. [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: >I'm one of the people who has not been able to get mozilla-0.9.9 running >(on either of my machines). I can use mozilla-0.9.8 just fine. > >There were other rep

I'm one of the people who has not been able to get mozilla-0.9.9 running (on either of my machines). I can use mozilla-0.9.8 just fine. There were other reports of problems on the mailing lists, and Masanori decided to stick with 0.9.8 for the fink 0.4.0 release. -- Dave
