I believe this information is written several times not only to this bug report. The wiki page for Icedove in the Debian wiki has dedicated instructions for this. > Vladimir K wrote on 13/12/16 18:18: > > I haven't observe the crash in upstream Thunderbird yet. > > I seem to able to increase the probability of the crash by > > vigourously browsing through mail in Icedove, caught it a few times. > > But upstream Thunderbird is pretty stable with the same profile. There main reason for this is also written here in this bug report, see #message55 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=828069#55 Debian is using GCC 4.9 for stable-security (GCC 4.8 on Wheezy LTS) and GCC 6.2 in unstable/testing. Mozilla is still using GCC 4.7.3 right now. So I believe most of the problems are related due gcc is not going that lazy anymore than the old gcc. There are several also known problematic things due the strictness of new gcc versions by Mozilla. So in the end we can't do much about that segfault issue for now. Regards Carsten
