I have installed the gutsy "proposed" epiphany (and other) updates (2.20.1-0ubuntu1), which now allows me to install the epiphany dbgsym packages from the ddeb repo Pedro mentioned at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash above. I've also installed the following dbgsym packages to try to get further through the trace:
$ dpkg -l |grep dbg ii epiphany-browser-dbgsym 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 ii epiphany-extensions-dbgsym 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 ii firefox-dbg 2.0.0.8+2nobinonly-0ubuntu1 ii kxsldbg 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu1 ii libavahi-client3-dbgsym 0.6.20-2ubuntu3 ii libavahi-common3-dbgsym 0.6.20-2ubuntu3 ii libavahi-compat-libdnssd1-dbgsym 0.6.20-2ubuntu3 ii libavahi-core5-dbgsym 0.6.20-2ubuntu3 ii libavahi-glib1-dbgsym 0.6.20-2ubuntu3 ii libc6-i686-dbgsym 2.6.1-1ubuntu10 ii libdbus-1-3-dbgsym 1.1.1-3ubuntu4 ii libglib2.0-0-dbgsym 2.14.1-1ubuntu1 ii libgnomevfs2-0-dbgsym 1:2.20.0-0ubuntu3 ii libnspr4-0d-dbgsym 4.6.6-3 ii pkg-create-dbgsym 0.20 Attached is a gdb backtrace. The problem is intermittent, and rebooting (but not re-logging into or restarting X) appears to (sometimes) solve the problem. For instance, at the moment when I try to run it from gdb to get a backtrace it will exit normally with the "epiphany:6742 WARNING" message (see first post above). It feels like a problem with dbus...? 1. Reported in Fedora FC6: http://lists.linuxcoding.com/rhl/2007q1/msg00081.html proposed solution - reboot, doesn't always work. 2. Reported in Debian: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-gnome-maintainers/2006-December/029412.html proposed solution - interfering dead epiphany processes, not the problem (ps -ef|grep epiphany reports nothing) ** Attachment added: "Backtrace from gdb output" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10315549/gdb-epiphany.txt -- Epiphany is reporting "double free or corruption (fasttop)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159141 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
