153132 - ln -s links to mozilla fail

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 57866

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[James Rome]

Usually I link executables to /usr/local/bin (in everyone's PATH). With the
Solaris 2.7 latest build, if I do
ln -s /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla /usr/local/bin/mozilla
and try to run it as a user, I get a strange error message about a test argument
being required.

$ /usr/local/bin/mozilla: test: argument expected
^C
[1] +  Done(1)                 mozilla &
$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/mozilla
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     other         26 Jun 20 09:44 /usr/local/bin/mozilla ->
/usr/local/mozilla/mozilla
$

Always include your build ID in bug reports you submit.

This is probably a duplicate of bug 57866(allow mozilla to start from symlinks)
which is fixed on the trunk but I don't think this fix made it to the 1.0 branch.

Marking as dupe because reporter says this works with a current trunk build. 
(See Bug 57866, comment #100)
