Description Jukka Alasalmi 2007-08-11 16:17:02 UTC
Following QA notices appear when emerging mozilla-firefox-bin-2.0.0.6:

 * QA Notice: The following files contain runtime text relocations
 *  Text relocations force the dynamic linker to perform extra
 *  work at startup, waste system resources, and may pose a security
 *  risk.  On some architectures, the code may not even function
 *  properly, if at all.
 *  For more information, see http://hardened.gentoo.org/pic-fix-guide.xml
 *  Please include this file in your report:
 *  /var/tmp/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-2.0.0.6/temp/scanelf-textrel.log
 * TEXTREL opt/firefox/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/libqfaservices.so


 * QA Notice: The following files contain executable stacks
 *  Files with executable stacks will not work properly (or at all!)
 *  on some architectures/operating systems.  A bug should be filed
 *  at http://bugs.gentoo.org/ to make sure the file is fixed.
 *  For more information, see http://hardened.gentoo.org/gnu-stack.xml
 *  Please include this file in your report:
 *  /var/tmp/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-2.0.0.6/temp/scanelf-execstack.log
 * RWX --- --- opt/firefox/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/libqfaservices.so

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Emerge mozilla-firefox-bin version 2.0.0.6
Actual Results:  
QA Notices that were listed in the description appeared.

Expected Results:  
No QA Notices should have appeared

Bug #114296 has the (probably exactly) same problems for Firefox 1.5, but I opened a new bug instead, because 2.x series is a different series of Firefox.

scanelf-textrel.log

This is recreated from emerge's output, because emerge seemed to remove the logs after completed. Therefore I am not 100% sure this is exactly the correct log, but at least the scanelf-execstack.log was exactly same as emerge's output.

Also post the output of `emerge --info`.

With FEATURES="keeptemp keepwork" emerge won't delete these logs.
