Description Sjoerd Mullender 2016-11-29 19:21:28 UTC 
Description of problem:
The mozilla programs (at least firefox and thunderbird) cannot deal with a crypto policy of FUTURE.
Firefox crashes when the crypto policies are set to FUTURE.  The problem in thunderbird is slightly different.  It results in thunderbird not connecting to the Internet.

I did not have this problem on Fedora 24.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-50.0-1.fc25.x86_64
thunderbird-45.4.0-1.fc25.x86_64
crypto-policies-20160921-2.git75b9b04.fc25.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.sudo sed -i s/^DEFAULT/FUTURE/ /etc/crypto-policies/config
2.sudo update-crypto-policies
3.firefox

Actual results:
A crash.  See messages below under Additional info.

Expected results:
Firefox starts up.

Comment 1 Martin Stransky 2016-11-30 13:10:47 UTC 
I'm unable to reproduce. Try please a fresh profile ($firefox -ProfileManager) and/or safe mode ($firefox -safe-mode).
Comment 2 Sjoerd Mullender 2016-11-30 13:47:52 UTC 
It crashes on a freshly installed Fedora 25 where the quoted commands are the only thing I did after logging in.  (Ok, I selected the default toolbar setup.)

What I should probably mention is that I use the XFCE desktop, and the new F25 installation was installed using the Fedora-Workstation-netinst-x86_64-25-1.3.iso installation "disk" where I selected XFCE instead of the default.

In particular, I do not have any old firefox profiles lying around on this installation.
Comment 3 Martin Stransky 2016-12-02 10:49:55 UTC 
Can you please provide full backtrace? How-to is here:
