Comment on attachment 607268 patch Actually, this does the right thing, but it would drastically inflate the version of GTK we require; g_unix_signal_add is said in the docs to be available from 2.30 onwards (though this version isn't actually available from the website...?), and we require 2.14. So I guess the better way to do it is to roll our own pipes and such.

(Original Report: I've reproduced it once on my machine with the following steps. With, oh, about 5 tabs open, I just pressed ctrl-alt-backspace, logged back in when the X server restarted, and FF crashed with a bug report when Gnome tried to restore the session. It's not terribly important, I don't think anyone does this very often, but maybe it'll be helpful. ) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/73536/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
