Mozilla & Firefox-1.0.7 won't start ?

I hope someone has the answer worked with the firefox on the 0.7 CD but after updating the system pacman -Syu seems no longer? 

Using Konquerer to write this.

After running firefox or mozilla I get the following

/opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-1.0.7/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-1.0.7/components/libnecko.so: undefined symbol: PR_GetAddrInfoByName

Tried removing and reinstalling through pacman but no good.

thanks for any help,
Cliff

That is weird... You're the only person I know of who has gotten that.

Maybe try doing 'ldconfig'...

weird is right !
Thanks for the reply I did try that no change. I have this working fine on other distros , I have kde, gnome etc working fine. Just not firefox?

Must be a reason !

Could this have anything to do with the firefox not starting?
