Comment 2 for bug 1726616

Hello, and thanks for replying,

I'd be glad to test right away, but the latest version of Ubuntu Mate for the Raspberry Pi that I'm able to download from https://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ is the 16.04.2 LTS, unlike users of the Desktop version who can download 16.04.3 LTS (and PowerPC users who are limited to 16.04.1 LTS). Where may I download that 16.04.3 LTS version for the Raspberry Pi, please ? Or should I start from a 16.04.2 and perform a 'apt-get dist-upgrade'?

P.S. As I said in my initial message, the version of Firefox that ships with the Raspberry Edition of Ubuntu Mate 16.04.2 LTS is Firefox 54.0.

Best regards,

Marc

Hello,

Ubuntu Mate 16.04.3 is available for the Raspberry Pi. Could you try
with this release ? Which version of Firefox produces the issue ?

Best regards.

Title:
  Firefox crashes repeatedly after system update

Status in ubuntu-mate:
  New

Bug description:
  How to reproduce:
  - Download and install Ubuntu Mate 16.04.2 LTS, Raspberry Edition, on a micro SD card.
  - Boot the Pi with that card, and launch Firefox. Everything's OK so far. By the way, it's FF 54.0.
  - Update everything either with Software Updater or with apt-get update + apt-get upgrade.
  - (Attempt to) launch Firefox again. It won't start at all, and all you'll get will be a window repeatedly saying that Firefox has crashed, and proposing to send a bug report.

  I've initially noticed this issue on the latest (LTS) version of the
  Raspberry Edition of Ubuntu Mate (16.04.2), and afterwards reproduced
  it on the 32-bit version of the Desktop Edition (16.04.3), so it's not
  a Raspberry-specific issue. But, oddly enough, not on the 64-bit
  version, where Firefox was updated from 54.0 to 56.0 and kept running
  fine. I did not try more recent versions of the Desktop Edition (17.04
  or 17.10) because the latest available for the Pi is the 16.04.2.

  I wish I could help more, by pinpointing precisely what has gone
  wrong, but this is the first time I report a bug in Ubuntu, and I
  don't know where to start the debugging.

  Thanks for reading,

  Marc
