Can you try something simple download firefox direct How about this: Just in case you can catch something these other two have missed, here's the output of the entire process. I redid it as they asked. If you still prefer downloading directly, just let me know and I'll try that. root[dan]# netpkg r...

Nope. Same result. I went back to firefox 3.6, and it seems to be working. Could you please quote the code you used (and the output it produced)? Sorry, I've lost patience with this. If you want to see the output, just read my earlier posts. Everything happened identically to our previous attempts,...

your previous 'Firefox' installation 3.6. It is actually Icecat,... which is almost undistinguishable ...except for a few convenient features, like dragging bookmarks, and all those places where it says "Firefox" instead of "Icecat" :o From now current mirror is : http://distro....

Mmmhhh... I now see that you'd be keeping both Icecat and Firefox I installed firefox 3.6 a long time ago. They seemed to work well together until I tried to upgrade. Could you please also try $ locate libxpcom.so $ locate libxpcom.so /usr/lib/icedove-3.0.4/libxpcom.so /usr/lib/icecat/libxpcom.so /...

Learn what? The only thing I'm learning is that zenwalk's software installation system is poorly organized.
Incidentally, I probably don't absolutely need firefox 12. I was running 3.6 before, so something in the 4--11 range might work if it exists.

you want your machine sync'd with ZW 7.0 snapshot. Then why aren't any of the snapshot mirrors labeled "7.0"? http://chronos.iut-bm.univ-fcomte.fr/distributions/zenwalk/i486/snapshot/ trial-and-error should eventually land you somewhere. choose a different mirror until you hit the jackpot...

Also, why aren't we using netpkg anymore, and why are we downloading packages by hand? because you try to use package in zenwalk7.0 that was not built or meant for zenwalk7.0 That doesn't explain why we stopped using netpkg or why we couldn't install from a mirror. Anyway, why didn't that work, and...

bipbip I got the library installed, so you can forget about it if you want.
Everything went well after I cleared the package selections and reselected the one I wanted.
Sorry about wasting so much of your time.
You too, franco. Thanks for the help.
