Re: [SOLVED] Firefox no longer loads pages since update & crash

I'm pretty sure that this is a silent ssl/cert error

pacman -Qs nss

That was it. FF now works for me.

Package (1)  Old Version  New Version  Net Change  Download Size

core/nss     3.87-1       3.88.1-1       0.00 MiB       1.55 MiB

sudo pacman -S nss

Seth - thank you for your help here.

Yes, thanks Seth and Fennec. It solved the issues for both FF and TB!

Re: [SOLVED] Firefox no longer loads pages since update & crash

Ftr, this also explains #14 because fennec001 rebuilt FF against the present (dated) nss

@fennec0001, either you're running partial updates (don't) or use a less-than-reliable mirror, https://archlinux.org/packages/community/any/reflector/

Re: [SOLVED] Firefox no longer loads pages since update & crash

Will replacing nss-hg with nss become a problem in the future?

I only ran an update for FF.
Lesson learned not to run partial updates.

Re: [SOLVED] Firefox no longer loads pages since update & crash

Why did it happen to me? I don't run partial updates and I have been using the same mirror for years.

Because of the nss library from the AUR, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_U … g_packages - blue note.
Whether the regular nss will become a "problem" I can't say - why where you using the aur package itfp?

Re: [SOLVED] Firefox no longer loads pages since update & crash

I have no idea... It probably came with something else from the aur? But I don't really install much from aur.
Or yay installed it while it should have taken the non-aur one. Strange.
I'll try to no longer use yay for non-aur related things.
