Description nospam4obr 2008-02-08 11:35:21 UTC 
Vanilla OOo ships with a whole bunch of quite outdated mozilla libraries. It
also sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to its program directory.

On systems where the DESKTOP_LAUNCH environment variable is set (like OpenSuSE
10.1), the *open-url scripts (which restore the original LD_LIBRARY_PATH if any
or unset the variable) are bypassed, which leads to a fatal relocation error
when firefox is started e.g. over Help -> Registration .. .
Comment 1 nospam4obr 2008-02-11 06:01:44 UTC 
Might be fixed with new installation structure ..
Comment 2 nospam4obr 2008-02-12 19:49:37 UTC 
No more LD_LIBRARY_PATH to some directory containing mozilla libraries when sb83
is integrated :-).
