Firefox 1.0.4 crashing on some websites

[Christophe Dumez]

I was using mozilla-firefox 1.0.2 and I recently updated to Firefox 1.0.4
(breezy) and since then it is crashing on some websites (firefox window just
close). I tried to launch it with --sync and I got this error :
SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_font.c(158): tag_func_define_font_2: langcode 1
Segmentation Fault

I tried to uninstall libswfdec0.3 but firefox is still crashing :
Segmentation fault with no other message.

I get the problem on this page for exemple
:http://www.acer.fr/acereuro/page6.do;jsessionid=33ff877af20f05cbfc5a4855d53169bc?UserCtxParam=0&GroupCtxParam=0&dctx1=8&ctx1=FR&crc=3344542757

I think I will downgrade to mozilla-firefox 1.0.2 while it isn't fixed.

Same here on my breezy amd64

Running firefox under gdb I get this at the time of crash:

0x0000002a9a956a88 in NSGetModule () from
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/components/libimglib2.so

So maybe it has something to do with the image loader and one of its dependent
packages.

Same thing happens with the mozilla suite:

0x0000002a9a0cccd8 in NSGetModule () from /usr/lib/mozilla/components/libimglib2.so

Any tips on how to proceed ?

I don't know if this is the same problem, but firefox (mozilla version 1.0.4,
but ubuntu version 1.0.2-ubuntu5.3) seg faults for me when I visit:
http://metservice.co.nz
This page was fine for me the other day (although other parts of this site were
causing a crash).

The URLs quoted work for me[1] with firefox 1.0.6-1ubuntu13. I think the bug
has probably been fixed.

[1] The acer one gives me a big internal error from the website.
