This is just a heads up..I think

XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib/firedragon/libxul.so:
libffi.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Couldn't load XPCOM.

libffi 3.4.2-4 is in testing

But it's in testing and not the main repos? Otherwise we would need a rebuild :eyes:

Just to verify, you're running with the testing repos and hitting this?

If that's the case then FireDragon will need a rebuild when libffi 3.4.2-4 gets to stable...

I wonder if it's worth Chaotic AUR having a testing branch for these rebuilds... not sure how builds/moves would be managed though.

Yeah, I have both testing and community testing enabled and I did get this error.

I can't start firedragon untill it gets rebuilt.

This just happened to me :confused: haven't changed anything since default install. Just ran update and we're here now. Guess I'll try downgrading.

Just happen to me right after I update to KDE 5.23.
Firedragon abend.

No problem with Brave though.

Same issue. Default settings, Firedragon is broken.

It's rebuilding currently :slightly_smiling_face:
Edit: done, just update to have it working again!
