Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.79 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.15 i686) BuildID: 20020131 The latest nightly build is totally dead, and will not start at all. When attempting to run it from the console, this happens: $ /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla: /usr/local/mozilla/run-mozilla.sh: No such file or directory Or, Mozilla-bin: $ /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla-bin /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla-bin: error while loading shared libraries: cannot open shared object file: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory Nothing has changed since using the last nightly build, except of course deletion of /usr/local/mozilla before installing the new one. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the latest nightly build. 2. Install. 3. Attempt to start Mozilla. Actual Results: Mozilla does not start, and spits out the above error message. Expected Results: Initialize, and start up properly. (I have no idea what libs it is looking for, as nothing on my system has been changed since the last build of Mozilla.)
Did a little bit of investigating, and found what Mojira is looking for. Running mozilla-bin under strace reveals that it is looking for libgkgfx.so. open("/lib/i686/libgkgfx.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/lib/mmx/libgkgfx.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/lib/libgkgfx.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/i686/mmx/libgkgfx.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) There are more, but I think that's good. Funny thing is... $ locate libgkgfx.so /usr/local/mozilla/libgkgfx.so
Summary: Mozilla will not start at all. → Mozilla will not start at all.

fwiw 'mozilla' is the correct script to run, it runs run-mozilla.sh (which somehow wasn't included in the archive), which in turn sets up paths so that mozilla can find its components. vrfy dupe
