(Get the code!)
I installed flash (or rather a gnash, some mozilla/flash plugin etc, from normal repositories)
after that, all sites (not just flash ones) crash epically after few seconds each time.
If I run firefox -g, then it segfaults, but then starts up anyway, and then crashes after few seconds.
Like this:
rafal@aclc:~$ firefox -g

Segmentation fault
and here firefox anyway runs, but then crashes after few seconds in an epic way.
Also, synaptic can not instal -dbgsym for this firefox (side note: so this bug wins the Bug² award, yey)
(ok there was some instruction with version= something or somethin something on bug hunting wiki, but its totally not user friendly, I think most people taking time to donte a bug report do not like to spend more of it then needed)
ubuntu 8.10 amd64
ii firefox 3.0.6+nobinonly
(ps.: bug³ - dpkg -l makes it harder to report damn version.
Why make 1 developer take 5 minutes to change default column length to 200, when we can instead make 10000 bug repoters each loose 5 minutes to re-google wheel? that is the spirit, lets make life harder)
