galeon-bin crashes with messed up mozilla installation
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Package: galeon Severity: normal Version: 0.12.4 Synopsis: galeon-bin crashes with messed up mozilla installation Bugzilla-Product: galeon Bugzilla-Component: Mozilla interaction Description: I just installed Red Hat 7.2 on my system, followed by Ximian. Up updated both using red-carpet. Shortly later, I chose to "verify installed packages" using red-carpet. This recommended the uninstallation of the mozilla package. Not knowing what else to do, I went ahead with it. Now mozilla won't run at all ("Mozilla has not been installed correctly."). But, when I run galeon, it doesn't work either: "** CRITICAL **: file mozilla.cpp: line 91 (gboolean mozilla_load_prefs ()): assertion `prefService != nsnull' failed" and it segfaults. Since this is probably the result of a bad installation, I'm not sure what can be done about it. It's most likely a problem with the mozilla installation, but there could be other problems because of package conflicts. ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-11-23 03:02 ------- The original reporter (jdorje@users.sourceforge.net) of this bug does not have an account here.
