When I updated sys-apps/findutils to version 4.3.3 today, I no longer was able to start firefox (2.0.0.3) or thunderbird (2.0.0.0). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =sys-apps/findutils-4.3.3 2. try to start firefox or thunderbird Actual Results: When I try to start firefox, I get the following output: No running windows found Error launching firefox: There are files in your profile that are owned by a user other than timo. firefox can't execute in this condition. Here are some of the files that I found: /home/timo/.firefox You can fix this problem by running the following: su -c 'chown -R timo:timo /home/timo/.mozilla' I get the same thing with thunderbird, just that it complains about its own configuration directory. The permissions are correct, though. Expected Results: Firefox or thunderbird should start normally. When I downgrade sys-apps/findutils to 4.3.2-r1 again, everything works as it should.

Just nuke 4.3.3 and bump to 4.3.4; it works... #19617: Nonexistent start points are (once again) diagnosed in ftsfind. This bug affected only findutils-4.3.3. #19616: Fix leaf optimisation and loop detection (which were unreliable in findutils 4.3.3). This bug affected only findutils-4.3.3. #19615: find --version no longer claims to be using FTS_CWDFD when it isn't. This bug affected only findutils-4.3.3. #19613: "find -L . -type f" no longer causes an assertion failure when it encounters a symbolic link loop. This bug affected only findutils-4.3.3.
for thunderbird-bin I just did this : "mkdir ~/.mozilla/thunderbird" if that's any help.
vapier, i've p.masked that version until you remove it. In bug 175708 i told you to bump to 4.3.4, not to 4.3.3 :)
*** Bug 177217 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Jakub: did you forget how to assign to maintainers ?
