[Bug 263173] Re: Sugar Browse fails on startup

[Morgan Collett]

The impact of this bug is that the Sugar web browser fails to start.

There is no fix to backport - just a rebuild against the newer
xulrunner-1.9 will fix it.

TEST CASE: Install sugar and sugar-activities. Run "sugar-emulator"
which runs Sugar in Xephyr. Press F3 to get to the Home View. Click the
"List View" icon at the top right of the screen. Click on the Browse
icon to launch it. Success means the browser launches with an
about:blank page. Press alt-shift-q to exit Sugar.

Please note that the source package is hulahop in hardy, and sugar-
hulahop in intrepid and jaunty.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: sugar-web-activity

Ubuntu Hardy 8.04
Browse installed from package sugar-web-activity 86-0ubuntu-1

When I click on the Browse icon to start it, it indicates that it is starting, and then goes away rather than opening. 

The log file, org.laptop.WebActivity-1.log, says 

ImportError: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

In fact, /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.1/libxul.so is present. Adding a symlink from /usr/lib/libxul.so fixes this problem, but then,

But then, we get serious problems. From org.laptop.WebActivity-9.log:
