[Bug 461201] New: secuirty update stops firefox running
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461201 Summary: secuirty update stops firefox running Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bobharvey@europe.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Community User Hi Yesterday I accepted a packagekit update for firefox, all red it was. Today firefox will not start. It is a silent failure from the toolbar, but if I try from the command line I get the rather odd message: bobh@Harvey14:~> firefox Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.4 and 1.9.0.4. I will attach the update log. I have had to install Opera in order to make this report. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

OK so this is not a bug.
maybe. But there was no correlation between the cause and the message on the command line (Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.4 and 1.9.0.4. ). That certainly fails the 'least astonishment' test. Nor has anything we have done uncovered what went wrong. There should be a 'what happened there?' resolution. Counting those would be a QA metric. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

That's why we have package dependency. Maybe I should reassign the bug to libzypp. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
