[Bug 1066046] Re: pvr driver crashes when ubiquity-slideshow starts

[Iain Lane]

I was kind of hoping to avoid multiple webkit uploads and to just copy
the SRU up to raring as the versions are the same. But oh well, to make
the best of the situation I've just uploaded the new point release to
raring. You should be good to accept the SRU.

Bug description:
  [ Description ]

  I think this happened on any page which uses JS. An upstream bug
  (linked from here) in the JS JIT results in segfaults.

  [ Test case ]

  On an armhf machine, try

    /usr/lib/webkitgtk-3.0-0/libexec/GtkLauncher
  "http://news.bbc.co.uk/"

  it should briefly open a window and then segfault before the fix, and
  successfully load the webpage after.

  Also try the slideshow that prompted this bug report in the first
  place

    bzr branch lp:ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu
    cd ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu
    ./Slideshow.py --path=build/ubuntu --controls

  again you should see a segfault (coming from webkit) before, and a
  lovely slideshow after.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  This might make webkit a bit slower on armel/hf. It shouldn't be too
  bad, but perhaps exercise a bit by browsing around in epiphany-browser
  to see.
