Something's missing!

All directories seem executable. All shell scripts seem 100755 octal. I'm logged in as root. What am I missing? The beta 4 runs the same. Your docs seem to omit any dependency issues, so here I am.

bash-3.1# pwd /opt/firefox3/firefox bash-3.1# ./firefox ./run-mozilla.sh: line 143: ./firefox-bin: No such file or directory bash-3.1#

bash-3.1# ls LICENSE greprefs libssl3.so README.txt icons libxpcom.so Throbber-small.gif libfreebl3.chk libxul.so application.ini libfreebl3.so modules blocklist.xml libmozjs.so mozilla-xremote-client browserconfig.properties libnspr4.so platform.ini chrome libnss3.so plugin-container components libnssckbi.so plugins crashreporter libnssdbm3.chk removed-files crashreporter-override.ini libnssdbm3.so res crashreporter.ini libnssutil3.so run-mozilla.sh defaults libplc4.so searchplugins dependentlibs.list libplds4.so update.locale dictionaries libsmime3.so updater extensions libsoftokn3.chk updater.ini firefox libsoftokn3.so firefox-bin libsqlite3.so

My guess is that firefox-bin is 32-bit - I've had this happen to me on Firefox 3.6 *and* Firefox 4.0. I had to recompile for my machine since Slack64 doesn't ship with any 32-bit compatibility libraries. It's not that hard to do.
