Well, I was sure that was going to work, but now I get:

/usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: line 460: /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: No
such file or directory

and:

/usr/bin/skype: line 10: /opt/skype/skype: No such file or directory

I think there was a totally different path showing up in the error
before.  I re-emerged mozilla-firefox-bin and skype with no success.
Any ideas?
