Latest thundervbird update will not start [SOLVED]

Thunderbird 31.01 will not run on either of my computers. The error is:
$ thunderbird
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib/thunderbird/libxul.so:
/usr/lib/thunderbird/libsmime3.so: version `NSS_3.16' not found (required by /usr/lib/thunderbird/libxul.so)
Couldn't load XPCOM.
I confirm that nss is 3.16.3-1
Can anyone say what is the problem?
Thanks
Andrew

OK, I admit it, I am confused.
I just updated again to install Thunderbird 31.0-1 and now it is working for me. But I do not know why:
$ ls lib*
libfreebl3.chk libldap60.so libmozalloc.so libnspr4.so libnssckbi.so libnssdbm3.so libplc4.so libprldap60.so libsoftokn3.chk libssl3.so
libfreebl3.so libldif60.so libmozsqlite3.so libnss3.so libnssdbm3.chk libnssutil3.so libplds4.so libsmime3.so libsoftokn3.so libxul.so
$ ldd /usr/lib/thunderbird/libxul.so
libsmime3.so => /usr/lib/libsmime3.so (0x00007fc3febf9000)
Here are the packages updated today:
belle-sip
cmake
kdelibs
lib32-libcups
lib32-openssl
lib32-util-linux
libx264
mencoder
mplayer
openssl
polarssl
qscintilla
swt
thunderbird
thunderbird-i18n-en-gb
thunderbird-i18n-fr
x264
None of which should have changed anything I would have thought.

suggests that the extra lib packages were left over from the upgrade.
I cannot say why the links were incorrectly updated before. All very strange.
Thanks for the help

  • Pages 09 (updated) will not start up using Lion OSX

    iWork Pages 09 (updated) will not start up using Lion OSX. It did work at one time but now it won't. I reinstalled iWork several times with updates but the applications say to reinstall or check the developer.  I'm using an i-Mac Intel with updated downloads for all applications.  Thank You in Advance for your thoughts to solving this concern.

    What else have you been doing just before this problem started? Any other updates on the computer? If you need to reinstall iWork which some has when upgrading to Lion after a complete uninstall.
    To uninstall correctly iWork, go to Yvans iDisk :
    <http://public.me.com/koenigyvan>
    Download :
    For_iWork:iWork '09:uninstall iWork '09.zip
    Expand the archive and run the script.
    Now you can instal iwork again and do the updates.

  • Beware latest itunes update will not let you keep your old password.

    updates are stupid. The letest apple itunes update will not let you keep your old password.
    Probably pertains to those of us who have kept same password for apple id since inception. New rules make you do all sorts of stupid characters instead of keeping it simple.

    sam it sounds like ur password has a low level of security and new update wants to to make it stronger
    when it askes to to make ur password just put ur old one back in but replace some letters with caps and numbers
    i got them same thing when i updated mine to the new version

  • The latest Yosemite update will not finish downloading

    MacBook Pro mid 2012
    I am in the middle of the latest Yosemite update. It requires a restart, so it restarted my computer. Then the normal white screen came up as it was turning on with the loading bar underneath the Apple logo. This is where the problem starts. When the loading bar is at the halfway point, the loading bar doesn't move anymore. I tried this update a couple weeks ago, and the same thing happened. I gave the update a couple hours and yet the loading bar doesn't move. If I force shutdown the computer with the power button, then turn the computer back on again, the update has not installed. I have a lot of storage space and a good internet connection, so I don't see what the problem is. Should i just wait for the next update and see what happens?

    Hi, I'm having the same issue right now...   it's been 3 hours!
    You said you force shutdown... does that just cancel the update and I should be good to go?... I'm thinking of not updating at all... very frustrating... I just need my computer.

  • Latest Flash update will not function in my XP.

    I use Win XP SP3 with Chrome, Catalyst 6.11.  After my last web prompted update, I have lost the ability to scroll horizontally.  I stuck with left view and some things cut off.  I use this old system on my TV.

    Same damn problem I was probably having...When using IE and
    deleting temporary internet files it disables/corrupts/removes
    proper function of the adobe flash player....You can reinstall all
    night long and it will claim a "successful" installation but, it is
    not....YOU MUST FIRST UNINSTALL ADOBE FLASH PLAYER USING THE ONLY
    TOOL THAT WILL DO THIS WHICH IS THE FLASH PLAYER UNINSTALLER FROM
    THE ADOBE WEBSITE....BE SURE AND SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP BECAUSE
    YOU WILL BE USING IT FOREVER.....Once you have used the uninstaller
    program you can then successfully and truthfully download the
    latest adobe flash player..............
    Adobe
    Uninstaller at bottom of page
    Further description of the problem: When you clean out your
    temporary files and/or temporary objects some critical part of the
    Flash9 goes with it and your flash will NOT operate...you can try
    and reinstall it all night long...your dead...nothing....you must
    FIRST GO TO THE ADOBE UNINSTALLER (hyperlink shown above) and run
    that program to uninstall COMPLETELY the flash9....Having done
    that, you can now install the flash and this time it will
    take......
    Another answer in addition to the one described above is to
    upgrade your IE to IE7. This seems to eliminate the problem
    concerning the functionality of the Flash9 and PC
    maintenance….keep your fingers crossed.
    Let me know the results………..

  • 3 Beeps After Software Update, Will Not Start

    Late 2012 Mac Mini.  Updated OS X with Software Update, upon restart it is instead beeping 3 beeps in a row, silence, then 3 beeps in a row again, for hours.  It's getting hot near the power cord.  Screen is black.  I finally powered down successfully by holding power button.
    I've seen older posts saying this signals faulty RAM in Powerbooks.  I did upgrade the RAM to 16 GB myself when I bought the Mac mini, it has always worked fine (apart from snowy screens when it first awakes or starts which eventually go away and I understand this update was supposed to address...).
    Have I voided my warranty by installing the RAM myself?
    What to do?

    John, thanks.  I ran the Apple Hardware Test, and the memory tested fine.  The three beeps at start up has not returned since the original restart after the software update, so who knows what it was...

    Rember, the free GUI front end for memtest is another memory test utility to consider.
    The display may or may not be related to anything. It will be difficult to draw any conclusion without another display to substitute.

    And concerning RAM, I've noticed I can't get the Mac to ever utilize even half of it... so I don't understand what the benefit is.
    Correct, there is no benefit of additional RAM unless and until your system and what you do with it requires more than you have. OS X manages its resources efficiently, and there is no way to change how it does that.
    I'm still getting snow when starting or awakening the Mac when the monitor has not been recently on, so there may be some interaction between the monitor and the Mac mini.  (MultiSync LCD2470 monitor.)  Because when the monitor has been running for a while I can restart the Mac without getting snow, usually.   Turning the monitor off and on about three or four times usually gets rid of the snowy image and I get a picture.  Every now and then it will abruptly turn to complete snow after having been on for hours, so who knows... I understood the snow problems were a common problem with the Intel integrated graphics and the recent software update(s) were meant to address it.  It didn't help in my case.
    At least I'm back to the original functionality from before the software update...

  • Latest Software Update will not let me power up

    I decided to update my MBP - the older one -
    once it shut it for a Restart, it will no longer Restart. It's shut down. So I go to power up with the button, and it tries to start, gives me 2 circles of the spinning clock, and shuts right back down again.
    I tried and tried, it refuses to power up and start.
    Any ideas? How do I fix this when I can't get into it?
