the message "GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed" is normal, you will have this message even if all is ok with firefox,

perhaps the bug is related to a problem with some libs in your configuration, a wrong version, a conflict with some AUR packages, you can run "ldd /usr/bin/firefox" in order to see if the correct libs are loaded,

you should see this in the console :

linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffe3e1fb000)
libpthread.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f88b1c79000)
libdl.so.2 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f88b1a75000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f88b16f3000)
libm.so.6 => /usr/lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007f88b13ef000)
libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f88b104d000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f88b1e96000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f88b0e37000)

Hi,

Indeed, this seems to be an intermittent problem, I just upgraded my packages, restarted my computer and it's working again.

I believe this ticket can be closed. Thanks!
