The program is running. Exit anyway? (y or n) Other information: I reported the bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/epiphany-browser/+bug/96267
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. I can't reproduce the bug here, given the steps in the description. However, given the apport retrace on the Launchpad bug (http://launchpadlibrarian.net/6936447/%3Cfdopen%3E), it's definitely a Mozilla problem which should be reported to bugzilla.mozilla.org if it isn't already filed yet. Thanks!
OK, I'll try to investigate more, but the crash does not happen in Mozilla Firefox. And the apport retrace was not made by me, but automaticaly (Ubuntu magic ;) The stacktrace is from me.
hi I was able to reproduce this bug only in epiphany-browser in Ubuntu. What is causing this crash to happen? You state Gecho causes it but what in the Gecho engine is causing it? Is there a work around for this issue? This could very well be a Mozilla issue but i would feel more comfortable calling it Mozilla bug if i was able to reproduce this on firefox or galeon or seamonkey/iceape.
The stack trace in the launchpad bug is clear: it's crashing in the gecko layout code.
yeah ... have you never seen a crash in gecko code because epiphany did wrong?
