Update: the HTTPS thing was a blind alley, I just didn't check enough HTTP sites (Slashdot crashes).
The culprit seems to be having the j2re1.4 package installed. ** Summary changed: - Epiphany crashes inside xulrunner when viewing HTTPS sites + Epiphany crashes inside xulrunner when j2re1.4 is installed ** Description changed: Binary package hint: epiphany-browser This is not the same as bug 181893, which is just about them being difficult to view. Epiphany, with the following versions, now completely crashes when visiting HTTPS sites, regardless of the validity of their certificate. + It also crashes on some other sites, such as http://slashdot.org/ Versions: epiphany-browser: 2.22.1.1-0ubuntu1 epiphany-gecko: 2.22.1.1-0ubuntu1 xulrunner-1.9: 1.9~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 epiphany-extensions: 2.22.0-0ubuntu1 epiphany-browser-dbg: 2.22.1.1-0ubuntu1 Sites tested: https://launchpad.net/ (has a valid certificate), https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/ (self-signed), https://divmod.com/ (self-signed). I can't get apport to catch the crash (it's running, I have no idea how apport is meant to work from there), so I will attach a manually obtained stack trace. -- Epiphany crashes inside xulrunner when j2re1.4 is installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to epiphany-browser in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
