Package: iceweasel
Version: 2.0+dfsg-1
Severity: important
I am using KDE as my desktop environmenti, with firefox as an often-used
WEB browser. With the new release of
iceweasel, a problem cropped up that I never saw before. When I login
after having logged out from a session where iceweasel is running, I get
this prompt:
"Your last Iceweasel session closed unexpectedly. You can restore the
tabs and windows from your previous session, or start a new session if
you think the problem was related to a page you were viewing"
Pressing "Restore" allows Iceweasel to start normally. So the problem is
not a killer, it is just a major nuisance.
I am not certain that this is a problem with Iceweasel - it could just
as well be a KDE bug. But Iceweasel is the new boy in the schoolyard
:-) - it could be a problem with Iceweasel not cleaning up properly when
it receives the killing signal from a KDE shutdown.
I have observed this behaviour on two rather different Debian "sid"
systems, two different kernel versions, and two different users.
Please feel free to write back for more information. Thankfully, the
problem is fully reproducible.
best regards
