Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: acroread
When I open a PDF link from Firefox, and the document is opened by acroread
embedded into the browser tab, I have encountered two ways to crash acroread:
1) by clicking on a link in the PDF file, that would normally open another PDF
from the website
2) by having multiple acroread tabs in Firefox, and closing one of the tabs.
In both cases, the acroread process dies and if there were other tabs
with acroread in them, they are also affected.
I attached a gdb to the acroread process before performing action (1)
and the results were:
(gdb) cont
Continuing.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 0xf55fe720 (LWP 16795)]
0xf685d819 in gdk_window_get_position () from /usr/lib32/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
(gdb)
Continuing.
Program exited with code 01.
(gdb)
The problem is related to the amd64 version, as I was not able to
reproduce it on the i386 distribution.
