There's an error in mozilla-firefox-0.8-r2.ebuild on line 216 that causes the symlink not to be created:
dosym mozilla-launcher /usr/bin/firefox should read:
dosym /usr/bin/mozilla-launcher /usr/bin/firefox

Reproducible: Always

No, that's wrong.  The target of the symlink is supposed to be relative, not absolute.  If this is a requirement of dosym then dosym is screwed.  Investigating.
Comment 2 Aron Griffis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-28 20:22:35 UTC
ok, fixed, was missing a dodir prior to dosym.  Thanks.
