#17 Can't open chm file on x86_64 firefox 3.0.1

Archlinux X86_64
Firefox 3.0.1 Linux x86_64
chmreader-linux_x86_64-gcc3-0.2.3.xpi

CHM Reader 0.2.3 is installed without problem. However, when I open chm files that can be openned by previous edition of chm reader, nothing happens. I got the following error message on firefox error console:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "'[JavaScript Error: "Components.classes[kCHMFILE_CONTRACTID] is undefined" {file: "file:///home/mumhero/.mozilla/firefox/5s25dcbh.default/extensions/%7B6e098d65-7d2d-46d4-ada0-2f882a29f795%7D/components/chm_protocol.js" line: 149}]' when calling method: [nsIProtocolHandler::newChannel]" nsresult: "0x80570021 (NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/bindings/browser.xml :: loadURIWithFlags :: line 186" data: yes]

Had the same issue as you, got it solved by compiling the package myself under arch x86_64.

export GECKO_SDK=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.0.1/
make package
