This segfault occurs when file '/etc/iceweasel/iceweaselrc' sets
environment variable 'ICEWEASEL_DSP' to 'padsp', which then
executes 'firefox-bin'. When running the script in verbose
mode we see:
iceweasel --verbose -new-tab http://bugs.debian.org
ICEWEASEL_DSP=padsp
APPLICATION_ID=iceweasel
CMDLINE_DISPLAY=
DISPLAY=:0.0
OPTIONS=-a iceweasel -new-tab http://bugs.debian.org
DEBUG=0
DEBUGGER=
MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=
MOZ_NO_REMOTE=
Running: padsp /usr/lib/iceweasel/firefox-bin -a iceweasel
-new-tab
http://bugs.debian.org
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
After setting 'ICEWEASEL_DSP' back to "none", there is no
segfault. Also, if we do:
gnome-open http://bugs.debian.org
the page is opened in a new tab with no segfault. The
odd thing is I am sure I didn't modify 'iceweaselrc'
recently, and the links in update-manager had been
behaving properly.
I will try to click on links in update-notifier/manager
tomorrow at daily maintenance time to test this.
Also, I will run an strace on the padsp invocation
of firefox-bin to try and see why the segfault is being caused.
