[Fink-devel] Firefox 1.0.1 crash on startup

[Hanspeter Niederstrasser]

I'm trying to update the firefox package to 1.0.1 but keep running into 
a bus error on startup.  Can someone try locally updating to firefox 
1.0.1 and seeing if they also get a bus error when trying to run the 
program?  The only thing that should need to be done in the .info file 
is to change the package version to 1.0.1, and the new MD5SUM is 
"ebaea974fea9460ab7050fff76b41cb1".  That should get you the new source 
file to compile.  The two executables to try are %p/bin/firefox (the 
normal run script) and %p/lib/firefox/firefox-bin (the actual 
executable).  Thanks.

As a followup, how could I go about debugging this?  The output from 
--enable-debug would not mean much to me (I'm not a programmer).  The 
1.0 patch applied cleanly and 1.0 -> 1.0.1 was mainly a security 
release, not a feature upgrade.  I checked the diff between the two 
sources and nothing jumped out at me as being new yet somehow related to 
the porting patch in Fink.
