This is a completely non-standard installion, and my guess is that the dynamic linker doesn't have the path to the libraries. Look in /etc/ld.so.conf and /etc/ld.so.conf.d what path names are configured in the dynamic linker. You probably need to add a new path with the location the non-standard firefox libraries. Try to find where the libraries are installed (somewhere under /usr/local/share maybe ?), and create a new .conf file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d After that, run ldconfig -v to rebuild to ld.so cache. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
