My guess is that you got yourself a system where the installed packages
didn`t match.
Maybe you downloaded the firefox package from the patches directory of
Slackware 15.0 and installed on your Slackware current. Maybe you
downloaded only the firefox package for Slackware current and tried to
apply that to a four mounths old installation of Slackware current.
Trying to cherry pick only a few packages from the /patches directory of
a stable version of Slackware might give different kinds of trouble and
the same of course also applies to the allways moving target alpha
version that Slackware current is.
