The ebuild works for me, but mozilla won't run after installation. Executing /opt/firefox/firefox{-bin} just does nothing and returns to command line after a few moments... Anyone more luck?
The installation of firefox sounds good but mozilla-launcher was enable to restart firefox after the first load. Probably because the floder .phoenix was moved to ./mozilla/firefox... to see... Regards Pascal
Nope. Removing $HOME/.phoenix and/or $HOME/.mozilla does not help me.
This doesn't work for me either. I get: keith@leak keith $ firefox-bin No running windows found keith@leak keith $ However, the initial profile migration worked.
When I run /opt/firefox/firefox-bin, I get: keith@leak keith $ /opt/firefox/firefox-bin /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: undefined symbol: _ZN12nsCharTraitsIcE12sEmptyBufferE keith@leak keith $

I installed it directly from the archive, and it runs. Deleted all files from older installations, even the folders in my ~/, but some problems remain: - It doesn't remember any settings, except if the Sidebar is shown or not. Everything else like Home Page, Window size, Cookie Settings, Advanced Settings etc. is reset at every restart. The directory ~/.mozilla/firefox is created and contains all nedded files. - I cannot install any Plugins. After installing AdBlock from Mozilla Extension the Plugin is shown under Tools | Extensions but disappears at the next start. The file is downloaded and moved to /home/tantal/.mozilla/firefox/default.ez2/chrome/adblock.jar, which seems to be the right place.
First comment on a bug, I'm in the forums mostly. I've been using this script and it works by calling it directly from an app. http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177996#c79 Still errors from the command line, but these solve that: firefox -a firefox -remote 'openURL(%s,new-window)' firefox -a firefox -remote 'openURL(%s,new-tab)' firefox -a firefox -remote 'openURL(%s)' firefox -a firefox -remote 'openURL(http://www.gentoo.org,new-tab)' Some more info here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1235936#1235936 Basicly it just works, not extra scripts when calling firefox from an application and the "-a firefox" eliminates the "window" error. I had to change the permissions for searchplugins and extensions but the installing works fine for both now. chmod o+rw /opt/firefox/searchplugins chmod o+rw /opt/firefox/extensions
Addendum to comment 8: - Permissions need fix (chmod in ebuild should do it) - Libraries are okay. They are the same in 0.8
To comment 10: Does not work for me. Another thing. Should I get a different ouput? <snip> /opt/firefix # ./firefox -g ./run-mozilla.sh -g ./firefox-bin MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=.

No, I shouldn't. Forget my last comment. It's the same with 0.8.
If you had a certain nightly build installed then firefox created a ~/.firerox directory. This was the change before they settled on the ~/.mozilla/firefox directory. Could this be the problem you are having? Also did you try relacing the default /opt/firefox/firefox script with http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=150144&action=view ? Your output seems to be using the original script from the .9rc build but I've tested those new startup commands with that one and it still works fine once the "-a firefox" is added before "-remote". The mozilla-launcher script is something I'm not sure of so perhaps it is causing you troubles?
I updated from 0.8 which had .phoenix as directory. Tried a clean install with no luck. unmerge 0.8, remove /opt/firefox, remove .phoenix and .mozilla, emerge 0.9, replace script /opt/firefox/firefox. Running /opt/firefox/firefox does not start firefox, but returns to prompt after a second or so. However, .mozilla-directory is created.
This was a GTK2 problem. Sorry, folks. Anyway, attaching working 0.9 ebuild
Created attachment 33313 [details] mozilla-firefox-bin-0.9.ebuild Ebuild for 0.9. Minor changes from 0.8. No changes from 0.9_rc.
Thanks for the help, guys. firefox-bin-0.9-r1 is in portage now, and so is mozilla-launcher-1.13 with support for firefox-bin Regarding the freetype patch, I appreciate the submission, but I'm going to leave it out because the point of firefox-bin is to have the distribution as provided by mozilla.org, not make a lot of Gentoo-specific changes.
Just to make clear, Aaron. The patch was in there before me (since version 0.7 at least)...
