I'm guessing you've now updated to Firebug 1.10.2? That update has exposed yet another (but different) bug in our addon (see bug 1035305). This is frustrating, and it doesn't help that our SRU process is completely unsuitable for responding quickly to these types of bugs where a change in code that we have no control over exposes a critical bug (whether it be a website or an addon).
Firefox 15 will be released before we get a fix for the new issue through proposed, so I'm afraid that people are stuck with this critical regression (which is a startup crash for a lot of Firebug users) until then (or until Mozilla blocklist our addon entirely) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025011 Title: HUD search causes firefox to crash Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in Unity global menubar extension for Firefox and Thunderbird: Fix Committed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “firefox” source package in Natty: Fix Committed Status in “firefox” source package in Oneiric: Fix Committed Status in “firefox” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in “firefox” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: Searching for any text causes Firefox 13.0.1 to crash on Ubuntu 12.04 ( both 32 & 64 bit **1).

In this situation Firefox doesn't crash. **1: I can reproduce this bug on 64 bit Ubuntu.
