I haven't yet crashed a Gecko build of 1.2.x, but neither have I gotten a successful gecko-backed build of 1.0.x yet. Uh? liferea-xulrunner is a gecko-backed build of liferea. You need do nothing but install that package to be able to use it as rendering engine. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

When using GtkHTML2 or Gecko? From the reports upstream I got the impression that the problem is solved for everyone when Gecko rendering is used. But I got only feedback from a few users. That most recent crash was 1.0.27-1 from sid, with the MD5 integer size patch hand-applied, built with debian/rules. IOW, it used gtkhtml for rendering, and still carries the liferea-mozilla dummy package. I've noticed upstream's recommendations that 64-bit targets abandon gtkhtml (e.g. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailatid=581684aid=1503029group_id=87005 and http://liferea.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/liferea/branches/liferea-1_2/liferea/ChangeLog?revision=2910view=markup#l_27 ). I haven't yet crashed a Gecko build of 1.2.x, but neither have I gotten a successful gecko-backed build of 1.0.x yet. -- Devin \ aqua(at)devin.com, IRC:Requiem; http://www.devin.com Carraway \ 1024D/E9ABFCD2: 13E7 199E DD1E 65F0 8905 2E43 5395 CA0D E9AB FCD2 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

FWIW, liferea 1.2.5 was released recently; its changelist cites the fixing of a crash on 64-bit platforms. I've been using it for the past five or six days and haven't crashed it yet, which is better than 1.0.27-1 ever did. This deep in the Etch freeze it's probably not reasonable to try to do a major update, but the fix itself might be easily backportable. -- Devin \ aqua(at)devin.com, IRC:Requiem; http://www.devin.com Carraway \ 1024D/E9ABFCD2: 13E7 199E DD1E 65F0 8905 2E43 5395 CA0D E9AB FCD2 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It could be worth to backport it. The simple patch is available from
here (md5.patch):

I also attached the file.
