Description Brian Harring (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-04 02:40:34 UTC 
Not sure of the best solution to this, but this snippet from the launcher- 

  case $zero in
    *fox)
      export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME="/usr/lib/MozillaFirefox"
      remote=$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/mozilla-xremote-client
      mozbin=$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/firefox-bin
      grepfor=Firefox-bin
      prefs=$HOME/.phoenix
      ;;

Doesn't seem valid for mozilla-firefox-0.8-r3; specifically, no symlinks/bin's were ever created/installed that match firefox-bin.

For the moment, I've just created the symlink manually.

Comment 1 Brad Laue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-04 09:21:59 UTC 
Which symlink did you have to manually create? Do /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/firefox and /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/firefox-bin exist? Was /usr/bin/firefox created as a symlink when firefox was merged?
Comment 2 Brian Harring (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-05 23:07:36 UTC 
Hmm.  Odd, re-emerged it, and both firefox and firefox-bin are appropriately symlinked.

Closing this, since I'd bet money it's related to my mildly screwed up system :)
Comment 3 Brian Harring (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-05 23:09:59 UTC 
Err, clarifying.
re-emerged mozilla-firefox, and the symlinks /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/firefox{,-bin} were created.

Didn't re-emerge launcher at all.
