Update from 6.5.2 from 6.5.1 in Linux Mint 22 fails - libmozsqlite3.so not found

[alan-wint]

What happened?

After updating to 6.5.2 from 6.5.1 I got

/home/user/apps/waterfox/updater: error while loading shared libraries: libmozsqlite3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It was solved by running

cd /home/user/apps/waterfox
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./waterfox

Probably related to #3610

Reproducible?

• I have checked that this issue cannot be reproduced on Mozilla Firefox.

Version

G6

What platform are you seeing the problem on?

If you run waterfox 6.5.1 and do the update to 6.5.2 from the menu, it uses the old updater program from 6.5.1 which doesn't have the fix.

+1 same issue, I can confirm alan-wint's experience.

Same error, same fix, with the possible differences being that my instance is on Manjaro and the browsers location is under /opt/waterfox.

same issue , reproducible.
I can confirm alan-wint's experience as well.

Just a note that the update to 6.5.2 hasn't actually happened yet, what's happened is the 6.5.1 update binary is missing a run path, so when it tries to update, it of course fails. Set the rpath as an env var to work around the issue.

Would be nice if this is pinned temporarily for users to easily find it
