TBB Vidalia fails to launch browser on Kubuntu 12.04 live usb.
hi, Running the 2.2.38-2 build of the Tor Browser Bundle on a Kubuntu 12.04 live usb and it gave the following problems.
Vidalia starts fine and connects to the network. The browser doesn't start with the error :
(firefox:stderr): XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /tmp/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/libxpcom.so:
(firefox:stderr): libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I found the libxul.so in the App/Firefox directory.
However, adding "./App/Firefox" to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable resulted in the following error:
(firefox:stderr): XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /tmp/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/libxpcom.so:
(firefox:stderr): libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ldd on the offending libxpcom shows :
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => not found
libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 => not found
Manually copying those files from another system into the local folders gets everything to work.
I noticed this first with the ver 2.2.38-1. I haven't check with any version prior to that.
I've been able to use 2.2.38-1 of the browser bundle with an installed version of Kubuntu 11.10.
This is the first time I've tried to use a version of the browser bundle with a Live USB.
