Fails searching for libunixprintplugin.so

Hello,

I'm trying to use this and have hit this error after running in a couple of times. It fails when trying to find libunixprintplugin.so. It appears I do not have one of these.

From what I can tell my plugins are at /opt/firefox/plugins

The script has this:

result = self.util.getSystemOutput(executionstring="find /usr/lib -name 'libunixprintplugin.so'", numlines=0) for line in result:

Since I don't seem to have a "libunixprintplugin.so" the find fails. I'm not sure what a libunixprintplugin.so is. Can you please let me know what to do?

Here's the error:

Hi What version of ubuntu are you running?

7.10

hi

well, libunixprintplugis.so /should/ be there in /usr/lib, if you have a firefox from the repos installed...

do you have /any/ plugins installed from the repos?

I'm having the same issue.

Ubuntuzilla used to work perfectly for me but recently it started failing. The command I have been using all along is:

$ ubuntuzilla.py -a install --skipbackup -p seamonkey

I'm using:

• Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS
• ubuntuzilla: 4.6.1-0ubuntu1
• firefox-3.0: 3.0.11+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1

Here's part of the log leading to the error:

Any clue?

Hi hmm, strange... can you try running the find command manually and see what it finds?

find /usr/lib -name 'libunixprintplugin.so'

Hi nanotube,

Thanks for helping. Here you go...

$ find /usr/lib -name 'libunixprintplugin.so'

/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so /usr/lib/seamonkey/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so

$ locate libunixprintplugin.so /opt/seamonkey/plugins_2009-01-13T13:56:32+0800/libunixprintplugin.so /usr/lib/seamonkey/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so /usr/share/Songbird/xulrunner/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so

Hi hmm, that's weird, it seems that it should be working....

here, could you run this modified version of ubuntuzilla, attached, (should print out the actual command output on error), and post output here.

just download the file to wherever you want (e.g., your desktop), extract it, open a terminal, cd to the directory where you downloaded it to, and run

python ubuntuzilla_test.py -a install -p seamonkey --skipbackup

Hi nanotube,

Thanks for the script. I need to go out now, but will try to test it tonight after I'm back. :)

You have a great day!

Hi nanotube,

I think I know what's causing the problem.

In the log that I quoted, I removed a "Permission denied" line from it, thinking that it's not important or related.

This is what it should be:

$ find /usr/lib -name 'libunixprintplugin.so'

/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so /usr/lib/seamonkey/plugins/libunixprintplugin.so find: /usr/lib/AntiVir/gui: Permission denied

$ echo $? 1

After temporarily applying "chmod o+rx" to the denied directories, ubuntuzilla is able to run successfully. Looks like I'll have to remember to chmod everytime before running ubuntuzilla, although a more comprehensive solution is to change the script to take care of such permission issue.

Thank you. :p

Hi

indeed, that would explain it! :)

Why not just permanently chmod o+x that stuff in /usr/bin/antivir? only programs (rather than program data) should live in /usr/bin, so there's no reason to restrict read access to it... ?

Hi nanotube,

I thought of doing that too, but when I look at what AntiVir is trying to protect, I found that the directory /usr/lib/AntiVir/gui/cert contains these files: cacert.jks, cacert.pem, client.jks, server.pem

The other files/directories are actually unprotected. I suppose AntiVir protected these directories because of these certificates.
