Hi,

Problem was: a new installation from the tar file of Firefox 3.6.4 gave a weird SElinux
error "/usr/local/firefox/firefox-bin defaultSELinux type is usr_t,
but its current type is usr_t" and suggested "/sbin/restorecon
'/usr/local/firefox/firefox-bin'" which didn't work. The new firefox 3.6.6 has the same
problem.

The solution, appeared on the Firefox Knowledge base is:
 chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /path/to/firefox/libxul.so

Regards,
GianPiero
