Actual Results: It has a segmentation fault like this: /usr/bin/mozilla: line 1: 9774 Segmentation fault $mozbin "$@" Expected Results: started the program. I do no have composite extensions. I have moved my .mozilla directory. I have re-emerged coreutils.
Hi, The same thing happens to me. Re-emerging firefox doesn't seem to help, and thunderbird and epiphany crash too. I also removed the .mozilla and .thunderbird directories, but nothing seems to help.
Hi, it seems to be a permission problem. What makes me think so is that, when running firefox as a normal user, I experience the same problem (crash with segfault). But when I do a "sudo firefox", everything works.
Fixed in mozilla-launcher-1.23 which refuses to start when files in the profile are owned by another user
