Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
Firefox dies repeatedly for no apparent reason. This happens both when
I'm actively using it or when I'm away for a while; Sometimes I can
resume my session but sometimes the "restore session" window appears. It
tends to happen several times per day, sometimes several times within an
hour. It makes using Fx problematic.
Debugging is a pain because Fx sometimes freezes (broken pipe) when run
from gdb.
Anyway, gdb doesn't seem to be much help here:
----8<----
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb) bt
No stack.
----8<----
after telling gdb "run", see above. Sometimes a "restore session"
window, sometimes the session resumes, sometimes it will run for a
couple of hours, sometimes it dies after a couple of minutes. Or a
freeze occurs, but only when debugging.
