This is for MozillaFirebird-0.7-r1 It doesn't start (unable to load shared library something ...) for the above reason. If I enter the said dir into /etc/ld.so.conf manually, it works.

if you remove that entry, run `env-update ; source /etc/profile` does it work ?

if you create the file 10mozilla in your /etc/env.d/ directory and add the following line to it LDPATH=/usr/lib/MozillaFirebird then do an env-update your mozillafirebird will work :)

Try adding LDPATH to the MozillaFirebird launch script on affected systems. Does this help?
# echo "LDPATH=\"/usr/lib/MozillaFirebird\"" > /etc/env.d/99firebird # env-update
Added this functionality to 0.7-r2. Please test and report functionality.
Fixed now in CVS
