|> Bonjour,

|> I have just installed FC4 on a machine and firefox is not working!
|>
|> Here is what I have done: install from CD the "official distro", the run
|> yum update.
|>
|> when I "click" the icon for web browsing: nothing happens!
|>
|> launching firefox from terminal does nothing!
|>
|> strace firefox in a terminal gives a lot of "no such file or directory"
|> warnings; for instance:
|>
|> open("/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.4/tls/i686/sse2/libexpat.so.0", O_RDONLY) =
|> - -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
|> open("/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.4/tls/i686/libexpat.so.0", O_RDONLY) = -1
|> ENOENT (No such file or directory)
|> open("/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.4/tls/sse2/libexpat.so.0", O_RDONLY) = -1
|> ENOENT (No such file or directory)

|> Seems that some libraries are missing! But why the depandencies were not

|> /etc/ld.so.conf contains only: include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
|>
|> and directory ld.so.conf.d/ contains only:
|> qt-i386.conf
|> xorg-x11-i386.conf
|>
|> It appears srange to me!
|>
|> What can I do?
|>
|> Thank you for any help.
|>
|> PS. I have done the "same" install on another machine and everything run
|> smoothly.... Strange!
