I just had a problem where neither Mozilla nor Firefox could successfully print after I emerged Gnome 2.10 (yeah, I know, it's package.masked). They both segfault when trying to print. Revdep-rebuild didn't fix the problem, even though I think it's a changed library in Gnome that's causing the problem. I tested this with Mozilla, Firefox, and Epiphany, which are all based on Gecko, and the problem only occured on Mozilla and Firefox, so it's not in Gecko, it's in some part of Mozilla that is still in Firefox (versus being rewritten). I did easily solve this by re-emerging the two browsers, but I figured this might help others know there's an easy answer and also help the Gnome and/or Mozilla people figure out what went wrong. I have an strace if anyone wants it.

Change Gtk2 themes. The default 'Glider' theme crashes Firefox when printing.
