[Bug 507089] Re: thunderbird shredder always segfaults on startup with LDAP auth in nsswitch

[psnizek]

Bug #507089
"My (jcollins) home directory is sshfs mounted to a remote server on my network using pam_mount. This is what happens when I try to run thunderbird:
jcollins at joewks:~$ thunderbird
Segmentation fault
jcollins at joewks:~$

When I log in as a user (jcollins-local) without a sshfs mounted home
directory, thunderbird runs fine."


>> I ran into the exact same symptoms as described by jcollins today after replacing the mainboard in my PC. Before that, Thunderbird was working reliably and was in use every day since 2013 on this machine. If logging in to my network where /home is on a NFS share, Thunderbird quits with "segmentation fault" during program start. If starting locally (logged in as local user), Thunderbird starts successfully. De- and re-installation didn't help. NSCD is on newest version.
We use LDAP for network user authentification (not for email).
