Description Yaroslav Klyukin 2002-04-10 00:29:29 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020311

Description of problem:
As far as i know, Mozilla is utilizing an old version of zlib, which has double
free bug.
I have tried tu update mozilla from mozilla.org, and i had success and i am
using it right now :) BUT! Galeon - GNOME browser, is not working, because it is
using mozilla rendering engine. Can you please update Mozilla and Galeon.

Best wishes!

The mozilla rpms use the system zlib and as long as your system zlib is up to
date there shouldn't be any problems.  Plus, as of version 0.9.9 the zlib in the
mozilla tree is fixed as well.

Comment 2 Yaroslav Klyukin 2002-04-11 02:04:27 UTC

The problem is when i install Mozilla 0.9.9, Galeon stops working, because it
expects Mozilla 0.9.2.

You need an updated galeon as well.

Comment 4 Yaroslav Klyukin 2002-04-12 00:11:26 UTC

That's what i am talking about!

I could not find Galeon update which supports Mozilla 0.9.9.
I think it does not exist. And if not, should be created.

It exists in rawhide.
