XPCOM error when launching firefox-bin

  • Quote

Post by pfc » Wed Aug 06, 2025 8:24 am

I see this output when trying to launch firefox-bin-141.0:

Code: Select all

XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /opt/firefox/libxul.so:
/opt/firefox/libxul.so: undefined symbol: gdk_wayland_device_get_wl_seat
Couldn't load XPCOM.
firefox-bin-140.0.4 works fine and doesn't produce that output.

I don't use wayland (the output above mentions wayland), so I have USE="X -wayland <...>" in /etc/portage/make.conf.

Is this a bug that I should report on bugs.gentoo.org, or could there be something wrongly configured on my system?

For some reason my portage wasn't updated, but 141.0.2 solves the issue.

Thank you for the help.
