Description of problem: monodevelop prints the following diagnostic output on startup: WARNING: Cannot find Mozilla directory containing libgtkembedmoz.so. Some Addins may not be able to function. Please set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your Mozilla directory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): monodevelop-0.19-6.fc9.i386 How reproducible: 100% reproducible Steps to Reproduce: 1. run "monodevelop" Actual results: Diagnostic output as described above. Expected results: No diagnostic output. Additional info: I see a copy of the missing library in "/usr/lib/thunderbird-2.0.0.14", and the diagnostic output goes away if I set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to this directory. But I shouldn't have to do this manually, and monodevelop probably shouldn't depend on thunderbird anyway.
It doesn't really make a difference to be honest in the operation of monodevelop and to require thunderbird is a pain. If you don't set it, does it cause a problem?
I'm seeing a large number of launch-time error messages about add-ins that could not be started. Since the error message I described here states that "Some Addins may not be able to function," I thought this might be the cause. But the add-in errors remain even if I set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to /usr/lib/thunderbird-2.0.0.14, so perhaps that's an unrelated problem. I'll file a new bug report for the add-in errors. As for this problem, well, if it doesn't cause problems then the warning message itself is misleading. If the warning is frivolous then it should be removed.
A frivolous warning is a bug, but not a very pressing one. Changing priority to "low".
It's not even a bug to be honest as it's not required. That said, I'm going to see what happens with it in rawhide...
Closing the bug - it's a warning that really has no effect on the running of MD.
