I'm trying the following...
yum --enablerepo=sl6x-fastbugs update firefox
... and I get "No Packages marked for Update". (And, yes, I've done a
"yum --enablerepo=* clean all" beforehand.) Does the package have a
different name?

It is in sl6x-fastbugs (thank you, Glenn Cooper) and solves my problem. It
doesn't crash when I download a pdf from the browser.

Thank you, Andrew.
Yum isn't showing me that newer version. Which SL repo does it come from?
I haven't been having any problems reading pdfs in the browser. Just (lately)
downloading them.

There is a slightly newer firefox for SL 6.10.
IIRC 60.1.0-6 fixed some crashes for me.
Is the in-browser pdf much good these days ?
I haven't tried it for several years because it couldn't handle
the PDFs I typically wanted to view.

Hello,
Firefox has been crashing if I try to save a pdf that I have been viewing in
the browser to a file. My logs show lines:

I imagine that the libxul.so in question is the one at
/usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so, although there are also files with that name in
/usr/lib64/xulrunner and /usr/lib/xulrunner
$ more /etc/system-release
Scientific Linux release 6.10 (Carbon)
$ rpm -q firefox
firefox-60.1.0-5.el6.x86_64
Any advice?
Thanks,
