I get notifications from firefox that an updates are available.
Once I wondered if it would be able to update and I pushed the update
button, it failed (likely in escalading the auths, as Andreas pointed).
To get rid of long compilation of firefox, I use www-client/firefox-bin.
The emerged binary
Ah, that is a good point ... assuming there's not an suid-updater
squirreled away somewhere. I'm pretty sure that I've run firefox (lots)
since last rebuilding it on the machine in question.
Your test is good, but yields new questions:
- machine 1:
$ pgrep -a firefox
*2829 /usr/lib64/fir
Hmm, interesting that it shows not the full path on one machine. This
should always show you the full path:
for p in `pgrep firefox` ; do ls -lh /proc/${p}/exe ; done
You could also check with the following command what will be executed:
which firefox
Use `which -a firefox` to see all possible bin
So, /usr/lib/firefox/firefox runs, and is writable only by root. But it
can't be that the full firefox functionality gets executed in 239364 bytes!
$ type firefox
firefox is /usr/bin/firefox
$ which -a firefox
/usr/bin/firefox
$ ll /usr/bin/firefox
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 2
I discovered that I had significant filesystem corruption.

Even so, the presence of the single slotted version in world should be

Exactly, and emerge -u
About 6 different complaints about my kernel configuration that blew off
the screen as packages were being emerged. Does any way exist to have
emerge write these to a log file of some sort for later checking and
action?

I did some portage configuration and the kernel configuration items that
are missing got saved in that log file!

Hi,
I am trying to change the mac address of a realtek wifi card using
either mac_wlan0="" in /etc/conf.d/net (which is in
the handbook) or manually using ifconfig wlan0 hw ether and its not working. Is there another way or am I stuck?
