#3 alligator thinks libgtkembedmoz.so is missing

[Christoph Langner]

I installed the alligator_0.5.0-1.deb (found on
gnome-files.org) file on Ubuntu Dapper, when I try to
start alligator, I get the message that's
/usr/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so is missing

# alligator
GTK Accessibility Module initialized
Library is missing:
/usr/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so. Please install it.

But Firefox and therefor this file is installed

# ls -al /usr/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 username username 76852 2006-07-27 17:00
/usr/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so

Do I need another some other package or is this a bug?

I can confirm this as a possible bug. So far I haven't been
able to figure out why this happens.

You could take a look at support request #1409018 for a
workaround.

Well, it starts. But as soon as i open an artikle (with a
doubleclick. Alligator crashes. I used the libgtkembedmoz.so
from Firefox

# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib/firefox/

Because i've got no Mozilla on my system. Here's the output
on the terminal when alligator crashes.

This is not connected with the mozilla/firefox problem. This
is an ugly bug in buggy 0.5.0 release (also reported in
other bug report) which is already fixed in SVN. Please use
version from SVN or apply another workaround:
$ mkdir ~/.alligator/cache
