Hi, On my powermac G5, running Lubuntu 16.04, I downgraded firefox to 45.02, and it worked again (I'm currently using it). I used:
sudo apt-get install firefox=45.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1 sudo apt-mark hold firefox I know it's not really satisfactory, that it would be better to try to fix the 46 version bug, but until I manage to succeed in this skill (maybe in 150 years), it allows me to avoid going back to macOS 10.5. -- 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/1583849 Title: dist-upgrade & FF upgrade breaks FF & Midori 16.04 PPC Status in Mozilla Firefox: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: OK, the reason I'm posting back here, running Lu 16.04 on an PPC iBook, and MATE/XFCE 16.04 on a PM ST. . . did a dist-upgrade today, so it now running the new "22" kernel and saw in the list of upgrades new updates to FF and T-bird . . . on both machines after reboot FF window frame loads . . . and then crashes . . . no data is ever filled into the browser window. The iBook error says it "doesn't have enough memory to report the problem" . . . and on the PM . . . apparently it says the error report was "corrupted" . . . no launchpad window opened in the browser when I clicked on the "report the problem." Tried to revert to the old kernel in the iBook several times, seemingly failed to boot the old one . . . shut it down. I went to the PM running 16.04 U-MATE and tried the same dist-upgrade via console there, that upgrade was much larger than the Lu system, but subsequently FF also then failed to launch w/o crashing . . . installed Midori to make an apple user post, but when I tried to start a new thread there Midori crashed as well. I ran "apt-get -f install" in both the iBook & the PM . . . nothing showed up. No "comment" in the terminal during the upgrade asking any questions or reporting "problems" . . . but FF is kaput!!!! I'm back in OSX 10.5 side until things cool down for the browsers in 16.04 PPC Lu & U-MATE/XFCE. e...
