Public bug reported: Firefox crashes during startup.
I have problems with firefox 16 since the update arrived, but it still started up, but would crash on every other page. Disabling all plugins and addons did not change the situation. After upgrading to 16.0.1 firefox started working everywhere again, but does not startup at all and crashes with this stacktrace: $ firefox -g GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.4-2012.04-0ubuntu2) 7.4-2012.04 Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
