Description Eric Paris 2007-11-13 19:17:53 UTC
Description of problem:

firefox-2.0.0.8-2.fc8
everything on the system is updated to latest F8 as of Mov 13.

When running firefox even in -safe-mode i get a seg fault.  I can get this to
reproduce just by trying to use firefox.  Sometimes it will open and work for
5-10 minutes of heavy browsing, sometimes it will open and crash almost immediately.

~/.mozilla has been cleaned out
(i'm in safe mode so it shouldn't matter but)
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins is empty
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins has libnullplugin.so and libuinixprintplugin.so
/usr/lib/firefox/extentions has insepector and a bunch of langpacks

rpm -V firefox shows no problems

I am attaching a gdb generated backtrace from the core dump created when it seg
faulted.  I have the core and may be willing to make it available publicly if
needed (175meg)

At this point, we're going to only be taking security fixes and major stability
fixes into this release of Fedora.  However, we still want to ensure the bug is
fixed in the next version.  We'd appreciate if you could test Firefox 3,
available at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html or now shipping
as the default in Fedora rawhide and provide feedback as to whether it still
exists so we can file a ticket upstream to try to fix it in Firefox 3 before it
is released.

reproducible in the latest update, please reopen this bug with additional
