screenshot showing firefox segfault
as a data point, firefox does not segfault this way using F12-Snap3-x86_64-Live-XFCE.torrent ... Could we get that report from abrt (click on the bubble which jumped up), please? Also I have my deep suspicion that this is just a zillionth duplicate of bug gecko-execmem. Stupid bugzilla, I meant bug 512845 No, sorry, it can't be ... that bug is just 32bit one. So, yes, we need that bactrace from abrt (just file a new bug through abrt GUI and make a comment in the abrt's comment box that it is duplicate of this bug), or if you cannot get it from there, then use the old-fashioned manual way: Please install firefox-debuginfo (debuginfo-install is from yum-utils package). debuginfo-install firefox Then run firefox with a parameter -g. That will start firefox running inside of gdb debugger. Then use command run and do whatever you did to make firefox crash. When it happens, you should go back to the gdb and run (gdb) thread apply all backtrace This produces usually many screens of the text. Copy all of them into a text editor and attach the file to the bug as an uncompressed attachment. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance. Hi Matej, I'm sorry, I'm having network problems with the VM image I used to run this test, so I haven't been able to install the debuginfo firefox package yet, nor get the gdb trace ... Brock No need to apologise ... answer when you can (but in a month, otherwise we will close this as INSUFFICIENT_DATA). verified this issue is fixed using post-install system installed from livecd: xfce-i386-20090928.14.iso This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping The VERIFIED, FAILS_QA and RELEASE_PENDING bug states are not used by Fedora (they are used in the RHEL process). --- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers |
