<br>
I have found it unproductive to try to install Firefox by rebuilding.<br>
It is far easier to update the XO with a bash script from a usb drive.<br>
This also avoids the problem with using a signed release (the basic build is signed).<br>
<br>
I am currently using Firefox 20 on build 12.1.0. The install script is:<br>
<br>
#install firefox<br>
echo 'install firefox'<br>
rm -rf /home/olpc/.mozilla<br>
sudo rm -rf /opt/firefox*<br>
sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/firefox<br>
sudo cp firefox*.tar.bz2 /opt<br>
cd /opt<br>
sudo tar -xvjpf firefox*.tar.bz2<br>
cd /usr/bin<br>
sudo ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox firefox<br>
sudo rm -rf /opt/firefox*.tar.bz2<br>
sudo poweroff<br>
<br>
This script also installs some Sugar activities. The final poweroff<br>
command shows the script is finished and also forces reboot of the XO.<br>
Note: the * after Firefox keeps the script valid when the Firefox release level changes. Naturally, the downloaded tarball is installed on the USB drive.<br>
<br>

</blockquote>
Firefox and xulrunner 17 are the late known good (and matching) builds<br>
for Fedora 17, you need the major versions to be matching (so<br>
12/13/17) but if you were pulling in all the latest stable updates<br>
into the build you would have matching ones AFAICT from koji so<br>
there's some other issue.<br>
<br>
I'm not sure what the following lines translate to but you should<br>
never use the koji repositories as repos as they contain all sorts of<br>
randomly tagged bits that the release repos don't.<br>
<br>
olpc_frozen_1=0,koji.dist-f17-<u></u>armv7hl<br>
olpc_frozen_2=0,koji.dist-f17-<u></u>armv7hl-updates-12.1.0<br>
