Ticket #23479 (closed defect: fixed)
firefox-x11-devel +internal_dependencies is missing GUI icons

Description
firefox-x11-devel compiled with +internal_dependencies causes the GUI icons in the toolbar for buttons such as Back and Forward to be missing; there are still thin areas (narrower than they are normally) that remain that will highlight and raise a tooltip on mouseover, and still function as buttons. The same is true of the "close tab" button on tabs.
On OS X 10.5, this can be worked around by not using the +internal_dependencies variant; this doesn't help on 10.6 if your system supports 64-bit, since the nss port bug forces you to use +internal_dependencies.
A partial workaround is to change the toolbar to show text-only instead of icons (albeit this doesn't help with the close button on tabs).
I've attached a screenshot of what this looks like.

This shouldn't be the case any more... I think that was fixed in beta 4...

No, this is with 3.6 final, and was also the case in the prior RC. (Although I'm not sure why the -devel port got 3.6 final, vs. the non--devel one.)
But this trac won't let me re-open the ticket; do I need to file another one?

The -devel port got 3.6 because it is newer than what was there (3.6rcX).
The non -devel port is still on 3.5.x because it is more stable than 3.6 and yelp does not work yet with gecko 1.9.2.

Ah, okay. I don't suppose there's anywhere I can look stuff like that up (e.g., "If you don't care about yelp, feel free to use the -devel version at 3.6.")? (I'm not using Gnome, so it doesn't matter to me.) Thanks for the clarification, though.
