Having gotten a sufficiently-recent version of glib, I am now several hours into the build of OpenOffice, and I've discovered that Firefox has quit working. When I try to start it: GThread-ERROR **: file gthread-posix.c: line 187 (): error 'Invalid argument' during 'pthread_mutex_trylock' aborting... Abort trap (core dumped) Of course, since it won't start up, I can't consult Help/About to find out the version :( but based on /var/db/pkg I think it is firefox-1.5.0.1_1,1 I suppose Firefox and OpenOffice are tripping over each other WRT the version of some shared library, but I thought the whole point of having version numbers on shared libs was to prevent that sort of problem. Does anyone have Firefox and OpenOffice coexisting on a single system? How is it accomplished?
