comment
-----
This error is given in the terminal when trying to run Firefox from the command line:

/usr/lib64/firefox-3.6/run-mozilla.sh: line 131:  2344 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

How to reproduce
-----
Firefox refuses to start and is completely unusable. Moving the ".mozilla" directory does not alter the situation.

I reinstalled Fedora and then disabled the Presto delta-RPM plugin, and this problem has not recurred since.
