Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Firefox tends to hang repeatedly for no apparent reason. I need to killall firefox to get rid of it.
I ran firefox --debug and gdb tells me this:
Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe.

Thank you for submitting this bug and helping to improve Ubuntu. You did a great job getting a backtrace, unfortunately you don't have any debugging symbols installed. Could you please install the debug symbols for firefox: 'Sudo apt-get install firefox-dbg' and then run the backtrace as you did before. Thanks in advance!
