Downloaded the required libs first (see dependencies in netscape6 (PR1)
port)
then downloaded the installer (very quick... it's small compared to
netscape)
ran it.
it produced a window (I guess you need to run X before running it)
and downloaded a LOT of stuff. hey
appeared in a temporary directory in /var/tmp
(on my system) (/tmp points there so I don't know where it THOUGHT it was
puting them...)
the files have an extension of .xpi, but 'file' reports them as ZIP files.
and unzip can read them.
as it started to unpack the files, the installer core-dumped with
a seg-fault so instalation stopped.
I unpacked the rest of the .xpi files (using unzip) by hand
and doing
cd {unpack dir}
cd bin
./netscape
seemed to run a script that ran another script that ran
a binary of some sort. I loaded a bunch-o-stuff
and then
the following messages appeared..
cmd mozilla-bin pid 434 tried to use non-present sched_get_priority_max
cmd mozilla-bin pid 434 tried to use non-present sched_get_priority_min
cmd mozilla-bin pid 437 tried to use non-present sched_setscheduler
the binary then goes into some sort of endless wait.
top shows it alternating between 'poll' and RUN
but I have no idea what it is waiting on.
maybe someone has gone further..
he Linux emulation may need to be tweeked somewhere but I'm not sure how
to find out how to see what it's waiting on.
(I think TRUSS can do linux programs and may be able to say what it's
waiting on but I'm not sure about that..)
