[gentoo-user] firefox crashes

[gentoo-user] firefox crashes

[Simon]

Hi,
   recently (dunno why or when exactly) firefox has started crashing when 
loading certain pages.  Two pages I'm used to access often that are causing the 
problem are my banking site (once logged in) and linode.com/members...  the 
error is a bit cryptic and may involve javascript (see the error below).

I tried recompiling firefox, but got the exact same result...  so I tried a 
`emerge -e mozilla-firefox`, (which btw, on the cheapest linode took a bit more 
than 3 hours).  So, the host basically compilled the binpkgs and i installed 
them on my desktop, same issue happened after...

Here's the use flags for ff, also all files related to portage config 
(make.conf,etc) are exactly the same on all my machines, only world is different.

[ebuild   R   ] www-client/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.17  USE="bindist debug ipv6

Folks that deal with firefox really frown upon gentoo and tend to stop 
supporting me because of that (saying gentoo is mostly a broken distribution, 
probably just because it's easy for newbies to break things, deps, etc).
Now that I have recompiled everything properly maybe they'll help me out, but I 
thought maybe you guys here could help also?

Here's the full output of ff when doing: `firefox linode.com/members`:

What does 'emerge --info' say? Does mozilla-firefox-bin work?

Those are only CSS errors, no problem

Possibly this is the problem many people are having related to
librsvg[1].  Try downgrading that package.

Good try Albert, however I already had version 2.22.2 (which is how to solve the 
issue)...

Thanks,

`emerge --info` at the bottom of my reply

I emerged mozilla-firefox-bin (strangely it didn't unmerge mozilla-firefox... it 
was a New ebuild).  Interestingly, it did work...  It gave no debug info so i 
couldn't compare the output...  I believe I'll have no problem in switching over 
to the bin version, but the error with the ebuild is still strange...

The CSS errors are more like debug warnings (note it was compiled with debug 
flag) they have nothing (i believe) to do with the issue.  The ***Exception 
before those errors give more info and some of the last lines also are relevant.
