Hadn't gotten around to reporting it but the same thing happened here.Jim1911 wrote:Fresh installation on Dell Inspiron laptop.
Installed Firefox 13 using Fatdog Package Manager. It does not work. I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times from different mirrors. Same results. Executing code firefox-spot results in # firefox-spot
sh: /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox: No such file or directory Likewise for firefox.
I cannot locate a firefox directory anywhere.
Installation changes Seamonkey icon to Firefox icon, however it opens Seamonkey.
I had a similar problem with my desktop computer installation and attributed that to a bad download. However, I think there is more to it since I get same results from both ibiblio and nluug. It may be better to create a pet from something other than the nightly build.
Otherwise, everything checked on the laptop is working great.
The Firefox directory is located at /usr/lib64/firefox-13.0/ ..... I just changed the exec line in the desktop file in /usr/share/applications/ to run FF as root.
Download was actually fine but FF wouldn't launch. Editing the desktop file worked here.
