I upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty to Karmic to Lucid. When starting xiphos I 
experienced the same segfault described in this bug. I noticed that although 
xulrunner-1.9.1 in no longer in Lucid, that there is a listing for 
xulrunner-1.9.1 in my synaptic. If I try to install it, it says "Package 
xulrunner-1.9.1 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never 
uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of 
sources.list", and if I click Properties, Installed Files, it lists 
/etc/gre.d/1.9.1.9.system.conf and /etc/xulrunner-1.9.1/system-greprefs.js.

In /etc/gre.d I have two files:
1.9.1.9.system.conf
1.9.2.8.system.conf.dpkg-bak

In synaptic, xulrunner-1.9.2 claims to have installed 
/etc/gre.d/1.9.2.8.system.conf
I tried reinstalling xulrunner-1.9.2 
(1.9.2.8+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1), but it did not create that missing 
file.

So I tried:
$ cd /etc/gre.d
$ sudo cp 1.9.2.8.system.conf.dpkg-bak 1.9.2.8.system.conf
Now xiphos starts without segfaulting.
