[Bug 496839] Re: xulrunner never fully installs

[quequotion]

Am I totally alone with this problem?

I have a little more information. xulrunner-1.9.1 is a dependency of
firefox 3.5.x, so it is possible to avoid the problem by simply never
upgrading past firefox 3.0.x

Finally I've gone back to Jaunty (there are just too many issues with my
setup and karmic to even consider an upgrade again) and I have avoided
firefox 3.5 since reinstallation. During a previous reinstallation
however, I noticed exactly the same problem as I had in Karmic:
xulrunner-1.9.1 will never finish installing (it left it running all
day...)

Furthermore, the process is always in sleep or wait status, giving me
the impression that it's hoping for some kind of trigger to go off but
it never comes.

I still have no log information regarding the issue, but I found an
interesting tidbit on phoronix just now:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ext4_btrfs_nilfs2&num=2

It seems ext4 is quite slow with sql databases. My system is installed
on an ext4 formatted RAID:0.

Could this be the route of the problem?
