Waterfox

A web browser that works great until one day the built in auto updater breaks it.

after update - libmozsqlite3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Happens right after update to version 6.5.2. The update fails on Ubuntu/Mint Linux. The waterfox browser updater breaks the web browser.

error while loading shared libraries: libmozsqlite3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Even though libmozsqlite3.so is present in the waterfox directory because it is part of waterfox and firefox for that matter.

No mention of the problem the developers created in their updater. No support available nor mention of it on their web site, blog, nor on their github. You're on your own. Your bookmarks and data are in ~/.waterfox so back all that up before proceeding. Then rm -rf your waterfox directory and reinstall from the latest bz2 file they offer.
