When attempting to upgrade xulrunner-1.9, the process hung until I hit

It would have been interesting to have attached a debugger and looked at
the backtrace when hung...
How is that done and where is that documented? I'm happy to learn how to
do these things but some applications/packages need a few pointers on
how to use a debugger with them.
What version were you upgrading from ? Can you try to downgrade and
upgrade again ? Does it happen again ?
I was upgrading from xulrunner-1.9 (1.9~rc2-3). The upgrade went fine on
another machine (Athlon XP) but not my personal machine (Pentium II).
I have been able to downgrade as I hadn't cleaned up the apt cache on
another machine - no earlier version was listed in testing or stable.
This time the upgrade went fine, so perhaps the bug should be retired as
unreproducible.
Arthur.
