mozilla-firefox


Hi everyone,

can I check the integrity of the mozilla installation because mozilla-firefox opens but is not loading anything also no errors.

Code:
bash-5.1# slackpkg search moz

Looking for moz in package list. Please wait... DONE

The list below shows all packages with name matching "moz".

[inst] patches     : mozilla-firefox-91.6.0esr-x86_64-1_slack15.0
[inst] patches     : mozilla-thunderbird-91.6.1-x86_64-1_slack15.0
[inst] slackware64 : mozilla-nss-3.74-x86_64-1
[inst] slackware64 : mozjs78-78.15.0esr-x86_64-1
[mask] slackware64 : mozilla-firefox-91.5.1esr-x86_64-1
[mask] slackware64 : mozilla-thunderbird-91.5.1-x86_64-1

You can search specific files using "slackpkg file-search file".
I removed /usr/lib64/firefox, /usr/bin/firefox/, usr/lib64/mozilla, and reinstalled but still does not work.

I am guessing I should remove not only the patch but the masked mozilla-firefox-91.5.1esr-x86_64-1 itself but I do not know how. I tried removepkg mozilla-firefox-91.5.1esr-x86_64-1 but did not work

Why?

The patch is the package you need. The [mask]'s package is not installed so you cannot remove it.

Do you have a "full install" of Slackware?
