Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-web-photo
After upgrade to karmic the gnome-web-photo hangs on anything I throw at it.
How to reproduce:
You can get a hang by following invocation (one line):
gnome-web-photo --mode=photo --format=png 'http://
You should get the bitmap of arial photo of cracow/poland in the file.png (you can test this in browser). Instead the program just hangs without any message consuming 100% cpu.
Even worse it is used as thumbnailer by nautilus. Just create empty file file.html and watch the hourglass icon for it and CPU soaring to 100% without any result. Furthermore - it blocks further updates of other icons until you kill the process.
The actual hanging process is /usr/bin/
This seems to be quite serious. Maybe not critical but high priority in my book.

I've hit this bug today - I want to use gnome-web-photo with shutter but it hangs. I've tried running at the command-line with both xulrunner-1.9.1.5 (hang) and xulrunner-1.9.0.14 (outputs some text about registering some mozilla.org python loaders, then hangs).
