Summary: Firefox miscompiled, needs gdk_threads_lock
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Final
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Firefox
AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: abrahams@xxxxxxx

Found By: ---


When you try to start the 10.3 OSS repository version of Firefox (or the
version on the DVD), you get this message:

/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error:
/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: undefined symbol: gdk_threads_lock

I downloaded the version of Firefox on the Mozilla website and replaced the
OpenSuse version with that one, and the error went away. Moreover, I've looked
at other versions of Firefox and done the following:

strings firefox-bin | grep gdk_threads

The defective version shows gdk_threads_lock but the other versions do not.
