In a Solaris update from 9.3, firefox's postinstall script fails
because some of the libraries firefox depends on were not yet
installed at that point. I will submit a patch to add the proper
package dependencies.
In a Linux auto-update, dustbuster complains that it "can't find
any way to dustbust" during installation of the firefox rpm, since
there is no tty. I'm thinking the update script should set the
ATHENA_LOGIN_SESSION variable to its pid, though I have not tried
that.
