[Bug 60236] Re: Firefox Segmentation Fault Requires Reboot

[Ashraf Amayreh]

I installed clearlooks engine. One thing, however, is really odd. I
started firefox and surely enough, clearlooks was working. After some
time I got that segfault that caused firefox to close. Now I ran firefox
in debug mode hoping I could generate a backtrace. I could almost swear
this crash doesn't occur in debug mode. I mean it's been at least
tripple the time it took when it crashed and still no sign of any crash.
And I'm pounding firefox as usual. Strange. I'll give it more time and
see what happens.

Now this may sound unlikely, but could it be that the firefox package
was compiled from a non-stable source while the firefox-dbg library
contains the stable source code? If I don't get that crash for much
longer then this is the only likely possibility that comes to mind. By
the way, my friend is using ubuntu feisty and he's getting the crash as
well, so there's more to it than the gtk2 engine. I just feel the
firefox package was not compiled with the same source code in firefox-
dbg
