just to make sure for some reason firefox is really lagging when the
policy is in enforcement mode. I can check again to see if I have
allowed all the rules, but is anybody else seeing this?

hmm... something must be wrong then with my setup(built from source
without xulrunner just plain firefox). out of curiosity I can try an
older policy to see, and also rebuild firefox to make sure things are
set correctly.

Thanks for verifying for me!!

Have a look if this helps out (from Sven Vermeulen
<[email protected]>):

[PATCH 05/15] Allow mozilla/firefox to manage tempfiles
timestamped Wed, 9 Mar 2011 22:11:21 +0100

firefox is not the most straightforward thing to build. Sometimes (not
very often though) I ended up in an unusable build for example.

Symptoms ? Logs ?

It might also depend on the specific version, especially if it is a new
one. Is 4.0 out ?

Regards,

Guido

the version I am using is 3.6.13(did look at 4 but decided to just build
the stable version(which is outdated probably now))without xulrunner
being the main base for the lib*'s

I had no problems running that version with refpolicy up to 15022011. If
it is the latest stable version then I cannot see how that would be
outdated. I suppose refpolicy is not based on unstable components.
