Package: mozilla-thunderbird Version: 1.0.6-3 Severity: normal
I've recently upgraded from mozilla-tunderbird 1.0.2-3 to 1.0.6-3, and have noticed that with the new version, under certain conditions, displaying the second HTML message after starting, Mozilla Thunderbird will segfault. I've not been able to reproduce the segfault with a plain text message, nor have I yet been able to reproduce it with HTML email messages (although I receive very few of these, so I could just not have a message which causes the problem). The problem is always reproducible by looking at RSS messages from the BBC. I have the following feeds presented in a single folder: http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/world/rss.xml http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/technology/rss.xml http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/uk/rss.xml I have Mozilla Thunderbird set up to display the article rather than the summary. When any message is selected, the article is displayed correctly. Moving to any other article in the same folder, Thunderbird will crash. This has been nearly 100% reproducible with Thunderbird 1.0.6. When it doesn't crash with the second message viewed, it will crash with the third message viewed, whether this is the same message as the first one to be viewed or a completely different one. Switching back to 1.0.2-3, no such segfaults occur. With 1.0.6, the BBC RSS feeds are not the only things to cause this becaviour. I also have a feed from http://usertools.plus.net/status/status.xml, but this only intermittently causes segfaults. Also, viewing an artivle from the Plusnet Usertools feed then viewing an article from the BBC does not cause a segfault. Please do let me know if I can provide any further information to help solve this problem. All the best, -Dave. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.3 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages mozilla-thunderbird depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.1-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.5-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.10-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.0.1-3 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.9-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libstdc++6 4.0.1-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxp6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4 X Window System printing extension ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0-2 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages mozilla-thunderbird recommends: ii myspell-en-gb [myspell 20030813-3 English (GB) dictionary for myspel ii xprint 1:0.1.0.alpha1-11 Xprint - the X11 print system (bin -- debconf information: * mozilla-thunderbird/browser: I will do it on my own -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
