Title: Missing dependency in SeaMonkey (CorePure64 16.2)
Post by: zwerg7 on November 17, 2025, 04:23:05 PM

Trying to load Seamonkey in TinyCore 16.2 (CorePure64) I got an error

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

When I had loaded another browser (e.g. Palemoon) before, Seamonkey started witout problems.

A check of the dependencies showed that libffi7.tcz is not listed as dependency of seamonkey.
I have added libffi7.tcz to the onboot list. This simple workaround worked as expected.
So there is no immediate need for a fix.  As the fix would probably be not much more than fixing a line in a makefile, it would be nice to have it done soon.

Hi zwerg7
Welcome to the forum.

Confirmed,  /usr/local/lib/seamonkey/libxul.so  depends on  libffi.so.7.
seamonkey.tcz.dep  updated in TC16 x86_64.

Thank you for reporting this.
