Do you have libXrender installed?
Yes.
Try doing a 'ldd /usr/local/lib64/firefox/libxul.so' Should give you some hints.
# ldd /usr/local/lib64/firefox/libxul.so linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00cb7000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x003c3000) libsmime3.so => not found
...
libssl3.so => not found libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1 (0x003f4000) libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x0038c000)These libs exist, just not where it's looking for them apparently.
Perhaps you downloaded the wrong arch (i386/x86_64)
I first downloaded i686, and then x86_64. Got the same error with both.
Well, the example you gave is a 32bit library, it picks up shared libraries from /usr/lib and not from /usr/lib64
Check with the file command that you really have installed the version you think you have.
