[Bug 1425026] [NEW] [vivid] Firefox: random crashes, refusal to connect, no symbols

 

Public bug reported:

$ apt-cache policy firefox
firefox:
  Installed: 35.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.14.10.1
  Candidate: 35.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.14.10.1
  Version table:
 *** 35.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.14.10.1 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     34.0+build2-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://archive.mirror.blix.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages


I'm getting random crashes without crash files. Some crashes leaves all other sessions broken, with symptoms including, but not limited to:
* No symbols at all
* Some Firefox graphics (Warning icon, etc) are not loaded, instead there's a placeholder image (red x)
* Cannot open any web page, when connected to Internet

How to reproduce:
1. Surf normally

What happens:
The browser crashes

It happens with a completely new profile as well.
