[Bug 434906] [NEW] seamonkey fails to start, strace complains about files in /usr/lib/xulrunner

[Carl Fink]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: seamonkey

I updated my system this morning, then restarted.  Now seamonkey won't
start, and when run in strace complains about certain files being
nonexistent or having incorrect permissions:

open("/usr/lib/xulrunner/components/xpti.dat.tmp", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
open("/usr/lib/xulrunner/components/compreg.dat.tmp", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_LARGEFILE, 0664) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
gettimeofday({1253656300, 605562}, NULL) = 0
stat64("/usr/lib/xulrunner/components/compreg.dat", 0xbfd45e24) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
lstat64("/usr/lib/xulrunner/components/compreg.dat", 0xbfd45e24) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/lib/xulrunner/xpicleanup.dat", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
read(7, "\372"..., 1)                   = 1
close(7)                                = 0
close(8)                                = 0
open("/usr/lib/xulrunner/components/compreg.dat.tmp", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_LARGEFILE, 0664) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
brk(0x9243000)                          = 0x9243000
brk(0x9242000)                          = 0x9242000
brk(0x9241000)                          = 0x9241000
brk(0x9240000)                          = 0x9240000
brk(0x9238000)                          = 0x9238000
brk(0x9237000)                          = 0x9237000
brk(0x9236000)                          = 0x9236000
brk(0x9235000)                          = 0x9235000
brk(0x9234000)                          = 0x9234000
exit_group(1)                           = ?

The same happens whether I start it as browser, composer, or mailer.

I'll be glad to do anything I can to help debug this.

Thanks for any help,
Carl Fink
