Description Bojan Smojver 2011-07-05 22:59:45 UTC
Description of problem:
Getting this a lot in the logs:
------------------
Jul  6 08:42:01 host kernel: [  137.402625] npviewer.bin[2261]: segfault at 0 ip 0000000049992070 sp 00000000ffeb5290 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.2800.8[49951000+118000]
------------------

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.3.2-1.fc15.i686

How reproducible:
Often.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start things like Citrix ICA, Flash plugin etc. from Firefox.
  
Actual results:
Segfault.

Expected results:
No segfault.

Additional info:
Version 1.4.4 is available upstream (http://nspluginwrapper.org/). Could we have this built and pushed to testing for F-15. It's probably worth a try.

Comment 1 Jason Tibbitts 2011-09-05 19:56:30 UTC
Well, 1.4.4 is in F-15 now.  I only pushed the update Friday morning so I don't have all that much data but I do still see a few identical segfaults from my user desktops.  At this point I don't think the new version has solved the issue, though it doesn't appear to have made anything worse.

I'm not really sure how to debug this, but if anyone has some tips I'd be happy to try them out.

Comment 2 Bojan Smojver 2011-09-09 01:35:47 UTC
I haven't seen any segfaults for a while now. But, I'll keep testing and if they happen will report back.

Comment 3 Martin Stransky 2011-10-20 15:20:33 UTC
Try Adobe 64-bit flash plugin, we're not going to fix nspluginwrapper.
