Check under ANPM having libvpx 1.6.1-1.oc00 installed
Be sure to not havve older libvpx.dll under other path than under @unixroot\usr/usr/lib

Hi Robert

I'm recently trying ArcaOS 5.0.5, so I'm not complete sure of what is going on.

On a fresh ArcaOS 5.0.5 VM I just installed, I noticed that Firefox 45.9.0 is included on the install procedure. Is that the same Firefox version that you were using on ArcaOS 5.0.4?
Maybe it is some kind of conflict between the Firefox 45 that you used to have installed on ArcaOS 5.0.4 with the one that get installed on ArcaOS 5.0.5.

On the fresh installed ArcaOS 5.0.5, Firefox 45 is getting installed on c:\Programs\Firefox\firefox.exe. Maybe there are some conflict if you installed Firefox 45.9.0 later on /usr.
It is just a thought.

Regards

Hi Robert, make sure you have libvpx-legacy-4 installed and if needed reinstall it. The newer Firefox is linked against a newer libvpx and it seems the upgrade procedure upgraded libvpx without installing libvpx-legacy-4. IIRC, FF 38 uses libvpx-legacy-2. All the vpx DLLs have versioned names so can co-exist.

Hi Dave,

Where do I find that libvpx-legacy-4.rpm? It doesn't appear in the package manager in my new install. libvpx-legacy-2 shows up under the 'installed' section but not legacy-4 nore is it in the 'available' section.
