[...] * The crash does _not_ show up with Galeon on another Debian sarge machine (can't understand why) That's really strange. What you can compare is: - installed packages (dpkg --get-selections), especially Mozilla plugins, such as swfdec, or libflash, or real player... Your suggestion made me think it could be swf-player's fault. I had installed it (on the machine where Galeon now crashes), found out that it does not work, filed a bug report (#319630) and then forgot about it while waiting for a reply from swf-player package maintainer... Now I removed and purged swf-player and all the dependencies that are not useful for any other installed package. But the crash still shows up. So it's not swf-player's fault, I would say. Anyway, installed package lists are fairly different between the two machines. Nonetheless, no difference concerns the packages listed in the Recommends: and Suggests: field of the galeon package... If you need a diff between the two dpkg --get-selections output, let me know... - hardware Hardware is really different, as well. Do you need detailed hardware component lists? - configuration (you tested with a new user on both machines?) Yes, I tested with a newly created user on both machines and the results are consistent with the ones I got with old users... Galeon consistently crashes on one machine, but not on the other. Installed plugins are visible in about:plugins. Installed plugins seem to be exactly the same (now). about:plugins shows libnullplugin.so and libmozsvgdec.so (on both machines) * I don't know if this is also a security issue (please bring this bug to the attention of the Debian security team and raise the severity if this is the case!) Well, it might. It's a bit hard to say. Since I can not reproduce the bug, and since you proved the bug does not happen on certain machine, I'd say no.

Hi, I see you're using the sarge version of Galeon. Sadly, the stable version of Galeon can not be updated except for security bugs, or very important bugs (data loss), and this doesn't apply to crashes for a specific web site. Hence, the only useful thing we can do for this bug is test whether it's fixed in testing or unstable for the next stable release.

Bug#333219: galeon: crashes when loading a particular website (http://www.jobcrawler.it)
Package: galeon Version: 1.3.20-1 Severity: normal Hi! I recently noted that Galeon crashes whenever I try to load http://www.jobcrawler.it Steps to reproduce: $ galeon -n http://www.jobcrawler.it Galeon main window appears, the only tab starts to load the website main page, then a dialog shows up, saying | The Application galeon has quit unexpectedly. | | You can inform the developers of what happened to help them fix | it. Or you can restart the application right now. Please note that: * I don't know if this is Debian-specific * Mozilla works fine on this website (no errors or crashes with mozilla http://www.jobcrawler.it;) * The crash is reproducible with a newly created user (on my Debian sarge machine) * The crash is reproducible even from an already started Galeon with other tabs in use: it crashes as soon as I open a new tab in order to load http://www.jobcrawler.it * The crash does _not_ show up with Galeon on another Debian sarge machine (can't understand why) * I don't know if this is also a security issue (please bring this bug to the attention of the Debian security team and raise the severity if this is the case!)
