Under fedora-10 Linux, firefox-17.0.1 worked well. After upgrading to firefox-18.0 (and also after installing later versions of firefox) when firefox attempts to start, it crashes with the error messages:

XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/local/firefox.18.0/libxpcom.so Undefined symbol NS_CycleCollectorSuspect2_P Couldn't load XPCOM

Make sure that you meet the system requirements for Firefox 18+ versions.

  1. GTK+ 2.18 or higher
  2. GLib 2.22 or higher
