Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instuctions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

unfortunatly it doesn't generate a segmentation fault so apport doesn't handle it
and yes apport is enabled in /etc/default/apport 'couse other segmentation fault are generated
anyway I've tried on other ubuntu 8.04 machines and it's reproducible
go to www.cerimages.com and hit ctrl++

yes Michal the bug is inside some common libraries of epiphany and firefox3 maybe the xulrunner or more accurate how the xulrunner use the gtk
hope someone could investigate better, 'couse the bug is not reproducible on all the installation I have.

Updates from 2008-06-26 solved the problem, i think:

Preparing to replace libglib2.0-0 2.16.3-1ubuntu2 (using .../libglib2.0-0_2.16.3-1ubuntu3_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libglib2.0-0 ...

meebo works ;)

Firefox constantly crashing when opening www.meebo.com with the same error reported in this thread:

Gtk:ERROR:(/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.12.9/gtk/gtkplug.c:182):gtk_plug_set_is_child: assertion failed: (!GTK_WIDGET (plug)->parent)

The crash happens silently, the only message appears on the CLI.

I can reproduce it here with version 2.22.2.

Openning meebo yields the following crash message:

** Gtk:ERROR:(/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.12.9/gtk/gtkplug.c:182):gtk_plug_set_is_child: assertion failed: (!GTK_WIDGET (plug)->parent)
Aborted

Maybe people at meebo changed something again? (I'm quite sure this did not happen a few weeks ago)
