   Is it possible to get iso slitaz-rolling before the last?
   Today update to the latest rolling version 2019-Nov-10 and firefox-70.0.1 lost the audio that worked with pulseaudio.
   Before updating firefox 70 it worked very well with audio and video

   SOLVED!

   I had some problems with firefox-official.

   1) First problem with "locale", send this error:
   -----------------
   locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
   locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
   locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
   LANG=es_ES.UTF-8
   LANGUAGE=
   LC_CTYPE="es_ES.UTF-8"
   LC_NUMERIC=es_VE.UTF-8
   LC_TIME=es_VE.UTF-8
   LC_COLLATE="es_ES.UTF-8"
   LC_MONETARY=es_VE.UTF-8
   LC_MESSAGES="es_ES.UTF-8"
   LC_PAPER="es_ES.UTF-8"
   LC_NAME="es_ES.UTF-8"
   -----------------

   Solution: export LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF-8

   2) Second problem, the audio: "pulseaudio" aborts the start of firefox.
   -----------------
   $ firefox-official
   Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 597: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args.nsid)->r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed!
   -----------------

   A library was missing "libwrap.so.0"
   Solution: tazpkg -gi libwrap

   3) For firefox to play twitter videos or live streams from youtube.
   You need to install ffmpeg and other files. You solve by installing "VLC".

   Now firefox-official updated to version 70.0.1, works very well :)

   Key Master

   Great news and congrats solving that alone. I usually install "apulse" with firefox so the sound work fine.

   Good to see you again in the forum @pankso !!
   With pulseaudio you have to fix the configuration files by hand as indicated by @mojo here http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/issue-with-pulseaudio#post-37164

   With apulse it also works for me following this thread http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/no-sound-after-31655-update#post-46048

   tazpkg -gi apulse
   sed -i 's/Exec=firefox-official %u/Exec=\/usr\/bin\/apulse firefox-official %u/' /usr/share/applications/firefox-official.desktop
   -----------------

   Thanks for fix firefox-official by adding libwrap and vlc http://hg.slitaz.org/wok/rev/f95c417fc3b6

   @Rerivero
   Another workaround after install apulse is patch libxul.so with
   patchelf --set-rpath /usr/lib/apulse libxul.so
